The parkrun is an excellent next step for C25k graduates. Did my first one in Cheltenham yesterday having tried the route by myself a few weeks ago. It is a very different experience running with other people. I managed 33.14 and came 155th out of 175, but felt pleased just to have kept going. Next time I will take Laura with me as found it scary running without my week 9 podcast.

That is a good time. It's frightening sometimes when you see the reports from the Park Runs but everyone here has a good experience of the support offered. I'm like Amy - not enough confidence yet but I'm working on it. Mind I've yet to run 5K - it's a work in progress.
