A hugh congratulations to you Annieapple on achieving a PB at this mornings Parkrun, excellent, I am sure it won't be long before you can get a sub 40 minute 5K, whether at parkrun or just running somewhere else.

I missed parkrun today as I was at one over the last two weeks, next Saturday I'll be at one wearing a red Santa hat and a Christmas jumper with reindeer on it.

Sort of, I've started today a MAF protocol (working within a personal low HR range) and it was a little confusing and therefore frustrating! I need to talk to my coach who persuaded me to give it a go .... my 'big sis' BoF (Box of Frogs 😂 - she does triathlons!!!)

AnnieappleAdministrator in reply to 2Tired2Run

Wow that sounds a great goal once you get your head around it! You will soon be following in Bof’s 🐸 wake!!
