I am doing my first parkrun tomorrow and so far had 3 nightmares about it: (1) forgot my barcode and couldn't run (2) realised too late I had turned up in flip flops (3) looked down at my legs on the start line and they were as hairy as a gorilla's.
All being well, none of the above will prevent me from running tomorrow at the Corby parkrun. Julie π

Haha Oh dear, that's a lot of stress dreams for something that's supposed to be fun. I'm sure you're going to have a wonderful time tomorrow because, let's face it, nothing is going to live up to your nightmares!! Good luck
I certainly hope not π - I volunteered there a couple of weeks ago so have seen the course and the volunteers are all very friendly, will let you all know tomorrow LOL
Thanks for your confidence in me and the C25K programme, graduating at parkrun is exciting. I wanted to just go and run week 9, run 3 quietly on my own but someone challenged me to make it special! I have a wristband with the barcode on it and ready for action! Julie
Discovering running has been a wonderful experience considering I hated exercise before and just watched TV. Now even on rest days, I am reading about running, chatting on the Forum and thinking about the next run! This is my first run with others, maybe I will be hooked and train for a 10K, always new challenges
Haha. You're nightmares got progressively funnier!! Good luck tmrw, you'll be fine I promise. I'm doing my second one tmrw. X
It's bizarre isn't it. I had a very drawn out dream about volunteering and at 2 mins to 9 found myself miles away from the Park and couldn't get back to my marshalling spot!!
I didn't know there were parkruns on Sundays? I was under the impression that the whole world ran on a Saturday morning? Just saying, but I suppose now it's a bit late, so you'll have to find out in the morning. Hope you have a blast, either way. (If you got the dates mixed up, just do your own "Freedom Run"; and nothing's lost).
Edit: Ah. In the couse of this evening I somehow managed to lose a day. Now I have it back again, so tomorrow can count as an extra Saturday in the week, maybe. Ignore the above, please.
Having just woken up from a very weird dream I know exactly where you're coming from. I'm going to try & do mt first 10km race tomorrow (Sunday). My dream included a toilet with no door, a workmate going off with my running shoes & refusing to give them back & me forgetting to put a t shirt on!!!
Thinking about you this morning when I did my second post graduation run!! Good luck honey - it will all be fantastic and I look forward to hearing all about it πβ€οΈβοΈ
