C25k Christmas Eve virtual parkrun and my 100th parkrun

β€’16 Replies

I did my first parkrun for my graduation run in May 2014 and today I did my 100th parkrun. I had never in my life run before starting C25k at the age of 52 and I'm still at it. I have run at 7 different parkruns and have enjoyed them all. I will never be super fast, still never managed a sub 30 min 5k, but hey, I'm out there every Saturday either running or volunteering. I love C25k and I love parkrun. Happy Christmas everyone and I really hope you first time parkrunners enjoyed the morning ! I'm the one with the darker clothing, and is that me with both feet off the ground ? Possibly...that'll be a first....

Thank you ! Yes, I get a lovely black parkrun t shirt with '100' on the back which I will wear with pride. I've also got the red '50' one and purple '25' volunteers one. So much choice !
