I am more than pleased with my first park run and finished with a time of 29.31.I Loved the experience and really helps to push you along having volunteers cheering you along and i was particularly impressed with the children wizzing past me at top speed.I will certainly be taking part again. :)

thankyou, i loved taking part even though i dont think i would have made it without all the volunteers support all the way around, i had to really push to the end, but i did it and am sooo pleased:)
