Hi,

I just completed the course this morning with my first Parkrun.

Many thanks to everyone for your positive and encouraging comments in the forum over the last 9 weeks.

To those just starting and feeling it a challenge I would just say, trust the programme. As a 52 year old bloke who really struggled in week 1 and has just done 5k in 29 minutes I can assure you that it really does work!

To those of you thinking about a Parkrun. Do it! It's great fun, very welcoming, and a real incentive with no pressure.

Really well done, great time.

I'm hoping to do my first parkrun next week for my graduation run, just not sure how I'll cope with the early Saturday morning!
