Well after last weeks debacle I found my mojo hiding under my trainers as one of you said and have just ran my first ever 10K. Fell down at 8k so ran final 2 with bloody knee but I don’t care because I am wonderful (chuffed as you can see)
I am 55, 4 years ago I had a hip replacement. I don’t know what made me start running in May for the first time in my life but so glad I did. THANK YOU to all of you who encouraged me to do this.
Maybe not exactly speechless! 😘
That is absolutely amazing mate, I'm hoping to do 10k in the near future, when did you graduate? because 10k is a great achievement. 😊
Graduated end of July. Doing parkruns and slowly building up
Excellent, I did my first park run on Saturday, loved it.
Yay well done 😀
Wow great respect for you 👍🏃
Amazing!! You're an inspiration 😊 And I love the run map, it looks mad and erratic and makes me happy!! I picture you chasing fun things like dogs or butterflies all over that park. And your knee war wound will be a reminder of what a warrior you are!! 💪
Wow! What a distance! What pace! What steep hills! (I run in the park too). I am 56, 3 runs from graduation, and so inspired by you Kim Lou lou. A fantastic achievement. Well done.
Nora, do you run in Greenwich Park? If so do you fancy joining me on this?

How lovely of you to ask. I'd love to, but I can't run 10k! Maybe a 5k run, but I haven't even run that far yet. Please ask me again in a couple of months. In the meantime, I'll be practicing running some hills, I avoid them at the minute.
They do a 5k one too!
And greenwich parkrun is great - doesnt matter if you have to walk some of the way - i do
How about we meet up at a Parkrun? In about a month, after I've graduated. It'll give me something to work towards. I'm too chicken to do the one you've suggested.
Awesome job, well done! 👍🏻
That’s fantastic. And what a great time. Go you! 🌟
Fabulous achievement. Well done!
Congratulations! Very well done. You ran your first 10k in exactly the same time as mine, to the second!
Glad you found your mojo !

You seem to be quite good at this running lark. Well done! Great speed too.

Absolutely brilliant! Well done to you!!👍
Congratulations Kim! That is a huge milestone! 🏆 I'm trying to get there now too.
