So its 7.30 and I am sitting pondering my first park run at 9am today and W9R3. I have a plan in my head to do my 5 min warm up from the start line then do my 30 min run and see where I am on the course. I know I will need to walk after the 30 minutes but hope to run at the end at least over the finish line. I am looking forward to the sea breeze but am concerned about the sun, but I will survive and I want to send a good luck message to everyone doing parkrun today or just doing their own nemesis..

Good luck with your run today, I'm not sure what a park run is but enjoy it.

Park run is a 5k timed run starting at 9am on Saturday in parks all over the country. It's a great way to do 5k - not at all intimidating. I am a v slow runner, and often come in last out of 200 in my park run, but it's not a race against others and I always get encouragement. You go online and get a bar code. If you use that, they can time you and you can see how you are doing against your personal best. If you google park run there's a good website. I'd recommend it to anybody.
