Today I achieved my Parkrun goal. To finish within the 30 minute range. With great pride I can announce that yesterday my time was 30.59! Just under 31, but I'll take it! Legs hurt like anything afterwards though. I was hoping to get there before the end of the year, and now I've only gone and done it! Can't stop 😊
