5k Parkrun completed - I did it folks! πŸƒ πŸ₯‰

Well..., after the 9 week C25K programme I completed my 5k Parkrun this morning. OK, so it took me 44.44mins but I completed it. No stopping - just slow and steady! To say I'm chuffed is an understatement. Over the course of the the programme I've had issues with my knee, which made me question (on more than one occasion) whether I would see this day.

Lesson - never doubt yourself, never give up, and keep running πŸƒ πŸ₯‰ #C25K

Good luck everyone x

Brilliant!! I am really enjoying doing the Parkrun post-graduation. 44 mins is a great time, you should be very pleased. I still can’t run the whole of mine but what I like about Parkrun is the lack of competition, it’s all about your own run.
