My third Parkrun and my third PB. I think it might start to get more difficult to keep up this progress!

Well done! The secret is to just beat your old PB by a small margin, which means you can create more PBs before you get to the place where it seems almost impossible to better that best time. My parkrun PB has stubbornly resisted all attempts of destruction for three years, despite getting within seconds of it on several occasions.

Thanks for the advice. I am such a slow runner that I have quite a bit of wiggle room! It will get better the more weight I lose too - have lost 12kg since Christmas (still have about 20kg to lose). 😬
