Parkrun 3

Think you nead a parkrun community on here as well at c25k.

I finished my 3rd Parkrun at the weekend with a PB even with me being last at all three runs and icy on the 2nd one I still feel chuffed too bits.

Thought today I would walk 5k just to see what the difference was. Half way round I cockled over and twisted my ankle.

Now I am sitting here with an ice pack on my ankle praying it is not so bad and I can run again at the weekend. Who would believe that I am looking forward to doing 5k and coming last. THINK I HAVE THE BUG...

I blame whoever on here mentioned Parkrun.

Thank you .

Hope your ankle is soon better. I did my 1st park run on Saturday and got a PB and I fully expected to be in the last few but somehow I managed to get back 37th out of 76, I was on a high for the rest of that day, Really felt like all the hard work training paid off.

Hopefully you can soon feel the buzz again. Good luck
