So today I got my first sub 30 parkrun. To say I'm chuffed is an understatement.
Strange though, my heart rate was slower even though I was quicker. Also got a notification from garmin connect that my vo2 max has gone up as of today also. Win win.
As always I love running and I want to thank everyone on here for their continuous support.
Tomorrow is a rest day then I will try for that 9k on Monday.
Have a great weekend everybody 🤗🤗
Wow, very well done! I'm still battling to get to under 40 minutes! 😂🤣😂
Thank you🤗
Well done buddy 🤩🤩 I’m so happy for you, I bet you’re over the moon
Well done. You're doing so well. I'm in awe x
Wow Buddy34, that's brilliant! Hope you're feeling very proud of yourself. ☺ 👟 🚀
Congratulations to you Buddy34 on achieving a sub 30 minute 5k at Drumpelliier parkrun, that is a dream come true for you which I will never achieve.
I ran at Dunfermline parkrun this morning, no PB at 32.43, however, my age grading remains above 50%, today it was 56.09%. which I am happy with.
Enjoy your 9K on Monday, next Saturday I'll be running at Drumpelliier.
Thank you AlMorr, it's great I managed a sub 30 minute parkrun and I'm happy but I wouldn't want to push myself like that all the time or it's now the longer runs are helping me go faster. Enjoy your weekend 🤗
It's a great time for you.
As I say I was at Dunfermline this morning, immediately I got off the bus I was greeted to a beautiful display of Christmas 🤶 🎄 lights in Dunfermline High Street, all the shop windows were also lit up with Xmas 🎄 lights as well, to cap it all there was a beautiful large Christmas 🤶 🎄 tree all lit up just at the entrance to Pittencrieff Park where the parkrun is held, all the lights were still on when I finished the 🏃🏾 run.
I bow down to your awesomeness, well done matey 🏃🏻♀️👍🏻🏃🏻♀️
How is your running going 🤗
Slow but I’m fine with that. Starting week 5 again tomorrow for structure...need to find a midweek solution in the dark to
Work through it faster. Core strengthening classes going well and lost over a stone. Marshalled again this morning and I’ve set myself target of running Christmas Day Parkrun!! Going to be a better version come the spring and push on. Thank you for asking my lovely. X
Go you! Well done Buddy - that’ll brighten up your day!
PBs always feel good, but when you cross a threshold time it has an even greater joy added to it.
Well done, congratulations, and hooray!! 🎉👏🍻
Well done Buddy34 .
You are reaping the benefits of those longer, stamina building runs.
It is an arbitrary distance/time combination, but no less satisfying to get under your belt.
Go Buddy go! Brilliant achievement - sub 30 is super special. Not sure I’ll ever get there, but I love hearing about those who do.
Well done you! 👏👏👏👏👏
Well done Buddy34.....great feeling ! Has to be celebrated 🥇👏👏👏👏👏👏🏆
Thank you , I treated myself to a nice roll and sausage which had black pudding in the middle. 😂
Each to their own .... will stick to my flat white and triple chocolate brownie!!😊
Amazing, well done Buddy that is so well deserved 
Fantastic effort you must be delighted. Enjoy your 9k.
Thank you hope you're feeling okay 🤗

Well done Buddy!🎖🏆
Fantastic! Congratulations! Sub 30 is a huge milestone 💪🏽
Congratulations Buddy34. Sub 30 is something many of us aspire to reach. My 60th today and still trying to get sub 31 😃. I will do it one day but it will have to be perfect conditions.
Celebrate in style
Happy birthday Dexy. 🤩🤩🎂🎂🎂🎂
Thank you Buddy, but I meant 60th parkrun . 😂😂 I’m a bit older than 60 now. But it was a good year - I discovered running.
Yahoo. Congratulations on your sub 30 minute 5k time. My first sub 30 min 5k time was also 29:56 and I was thrilled. Brilliant and very well done. Sub 30 is a great milestone.
Damien
Nice one to get under your belt - well done 😂
Awesome!!!!!! You must be really pleased with yourself, well done
Thank you 🤗
Thats super Buddy34 Go you... that must feel amazing!
What a brilliant run. 👌😊xxx
I always seem to think back to wk1 and how tough it felt. To go from that to this really is amazing. Thank you 🤗
Well done Buddy!👍 Sub-29 next!😋
Well done Buddy! That’s a great achievement! And thank you to all the support you give everyone on here xx
Thank you🤗
That is so brilliant Buddy! I'm always in awe of a PB under 30 for a parkrun! I'm usually hacking round in about 33 at the moment and I'm determined to shave off those 3 minutes somewhere, but it's just not happening at the moment!
Thank you. I think my longer runs are now helping me run faster not sure. 🤗
Well done! Absolutely fantastic!!
Awesome! To me that’s a massive milestone in this crazy running journey. Think you are fully justified in being super smug!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Well done that’s fab x
Amazing! Congratulations. That's awesome. I'm another still trying to get under 40 minutes! Guess it takes all kinds.
Woohoo!
Amazing! A milestone I'd love to achieve. Technically, I've only got to get 51 seconds faster but seems an impossible dream! Have a great 9k.
Well done. Drumpellier would have been my local parkrun had it existed fifty years ago as I grew up in Coatbridge. I’m hoping to be there next week for my 50th parkrun.
Thank you ArthurJG . Good luck with your 50th parkrun that's amazing. I won't be there next week as I only go ever 2 weeks. Hope you really enjoy it 🤗
Do you still live in Scotland?
Fabulous run. Well done 👍 🥳
Well done Buddy, hope you’ve been celebrating alllll weekend as I would defo if I did a sub 30 👍
Oh wow! And another wow! Don't you deserve that rest day. Amazing.
Very well done. Hope you are celebrating!
Well done! My best to date is 31.54
Well done, any tips appreciated 👏🏻👏🏻
Not sure if I've got any tips as such but I've started running one slower longer run each week on a Monday maybe have helped with speed 🤗
Well done you . 🏅I am struggling to run at all, more of a slow amble 😂😂
Well done and thanks x
Well done. I've still to do a sub 30 parkrun, but definitely find that the longer runs have helped me speed up the shorter ones.
Wow! Well done👏👏👏
Nice one....and chuffed you should be!!
And here's me only finding out what a Parkrun is today and getting really excited that there are a few I can go to not to far away from me
Survived my first Parkrun
First Junior Parkrun of the New Year
