Hey, Rockette! You must be ecstatic!! You're nearly there! Bet your hubby is eating his words! (Didn't he say it as just another fad, or something?!)

Yes he did ! , don't think he believed I was doing these runs , so I stuck garmin in lap top & let him see my routes , he thought I was sat having coffee at my friends house down the road , men !

Fantastic What a great time ! ( I will be delighted if I could manage 5k in 46 mins --- 36 is way out my plodding range ) You should be really proud Look forward to seeing your graduation post

Thankyou fitfor60 I was surprised to be honest, I knew the route , I checked it out on line & even registerd but not brave enough yet , want to prove to my I can do it a few times , when Laura said 30 min had gone & I checked the garmin , I thought I'm not far off completing this park run so I kept at it , glad I pushed my self it was hard but I did it .

Oh well done. That is an amazing time. I reckon yr 3rd run will be 30 mins as I felt I was flying this morning particularly on the last 15. And although just a few metres away felt amazing. You've done brilliantly. One more!!! Yeah!!!!
