I've just done my first park run at the end of week 7 (I've just posted about it). Definitely go for it - the support is great.

You ask for it on the pinned post Graduation Badges August 2017 and shortly after it magically appears.x

Thanks. Where do I find this? It's probably very obvious but I'm so elated I'm not thinking straight!
