Got the t-shirt

Sadly, the t-shirt didn't arrive in time for my first Parkrun but I wore it this morning. Two people saw it!

Parkrun was great and I was pretty pleased with my time of 00:35:52 as I had never managed 5K on my training runs. I was also 1st out of my age group but that's not a great boast as there was only one other 70 year old anyway. πŸ˜€

Well done on the time - who cares you were the only one in your age group. I think it's brilliant.

Love the T-Shirt, I want one. Great time too.πŸ‘ Congrats. Parkrun is addictive. After a few weeks you'll be hooked. I love my Saturday mornings and Parkrun is a great way to start the weekend.

Hi, yes I did. A very good service I thought and there's a choice of colours.

Speedy you! If I can run 5 k in that time when I turn 70, I'll be very, very happy. I can only just manage that time now and I'm only 45.

Yes, but I bet your life is twice as busy as mine. Being retired has a lot to recommend it. πŸ˜€

Oh sorry! I had to buy it. It came from Complete Runner Online.

Thank you for your support but first of 2 isn't that great but I cling to these small successes!

Oh wow... well done.

I will be graduating this week but attempted my first park run last Saturday - not a patch on you!

Where do we get the t-shirt from?

Glad to hear you where happy with your purchase.

That's a great time for your first 5K distance. Don't worry too much about the time it's about doing somthing to stay fit, pushing yourself to far/too fast will only stop you from enjoying it.
