50th Parkrun

β€’13 Replies

last Saturday I completed my 50th Parkrun and with a PB of 25m 40s 😊.

Slightly embarrassing when your name is called out in the pre-run briefing putting your hand up but great when everyone turns and applauds your effort that's the joy of parkrun run and everyone whatever their abilities is encouraged every week.

It was only a couple of years ago I started running at 62 years young and it was C25K that got me to the level I am at now together with the fantastic encouragement from this forum.

Happy running everyone πŸƒπŸƒ

Well done on your 50 runs! I know what it's like as I did mine 2 weeks ago and funnily enough I started 2 years ago at 62 as well. Congrats on your PB, that's a super fast time!

Fabulous effort !
