Second park run

I did my second park run today and found myself jabbering away in the funnel at the end about how the couch to 5k makes the impossible possible! Cannot believe that I managed to do it again - although I miss the podcasts, serious dance music gets me round. And I was flagging at around 2.5 miles, I forwarded to Barry Manilow's copacabana to get me to the final bend and over the bridge. 1200 runners today. I did have to fit in a sneaky snooze this afternoon though....

Also went back to GP this week for results from NHS free health check...things moving in the right direction but need to keep this up. So really feeling the love for the NHS at the moment - dread to imagine what the results would have been without C25K.

Well done on completing your second park run, wow 1200 runners that's amazing, we had 289, in sunny Blackpool.

Nothing up with a sneaky snooze !

Methinks that was Bushy Park. Am I right? Great parkrun venue, especially when it gets to deer rutting season.

Indeed! I'm sure it won't be long before I join you in a trip on one of the runs. Hope you're feeling ok after today!

Yes I am fine thanks! I have been a parkrun tourist at Bushy 3 times, really like it. Have tried Richmond Park and Kingston too, both worth doing.
