Well , who would of believed it. I have been a non runner for more years than I care to admit . Tonight I ran my 28 minutes and then ran another 2 to notch my first 30 minute run ever. Registered with park run, and I might give it a bash this Saturday . Couldn’t have done this without all the encouragement from members of this group , so thank you all

Well done! It's amazing isn't it. Who knew ey?

Parkrun is brill! Just don't go mad! Go steady. It's so easy to go for it. But resist the temptation to push it please.

Be a bit Zen and then have a cuppa after and meet the folks. Volunteering is good to do as well

Have fun. Good luck!

Oh and good luck with your remaining few runs of the programme!
