Had a completely rubbish Parkrun yesterday but did manage to complete the 5K ... a good friend just sent me this to help cheer me up, so I thought I'd share it with all you wonderful forum people.

But you completed a parkrun yesterday David. How brilliant is that? 🤗

Spot on. There will be another Park run next week. And you finished. We are all very good at giving ourselves targets that make success feel like failure. We need to get better at celebrating everyday successes like running a park run.

Marvellous words. You win some , you lose some. Sometimes Parkrun is a terrible struggle for no good reason.
