*Tiptoes in quietly*
Morning All 😊
*Whispers*
I may have registered to do a ParkRun...& had planned on possibly doing it on Saturday morning...but for some reason my confidence has gone walkabouts 😕
Do you think its something I could do at this stage?any thoughts at this point would be gratefully recieved 😊
*Tiptoes out*
Try it, what’s the worst that could happen? just be aware that bizarrely you may get nervous about it. But they are a lovely bunch always welcoming to newbies. Run your own run and I hope you have fun...
Thankyou...i was looking forward to doing it but for some reason nerves are definately kicking in & self doubt!!!
I’d graduated at least 3 months before I did my first and still got the collywobbles I think we all do
Congratulations graduate. You did as good as 3 park runs on your week 9.
You have done the training , go for it and enjoy.
Cannot wait to do my first.Got to graduate first.😂😂

Thankyou very much 😊 i have managed to get through the entire c25k programme without worrying or overthinking & all of a sudden it starts!!!
I am a novice want to be runner.I am passionate about preserving my strength and cardio fitness.I have found any exercise regime lifts your mood.I think the more you do within obvious limits may ward off any doubts. All the team and forum offer great support.
Cherry pick all that wealth of experience,expertise,talent, kindness, compassion, etc.We are all uniquely different and have different needs.The gems you need are there for you to deal with any doubt.
There is no reason why not...just slow, steady , don't get carried away by the excitement and emotion of the event... and most of all...enjoy 
Thankyou 😊 not sure why i am doubting myself now for!!!!
Go for it! I did my first as my graduation run but stick to your 5 mins warm up walk then see how you go. Have fun 👍
Thankyou...its a good 15 minute walk to the parkrun itself so that will be no problem 😊
Your fortunate to have it on your doorstep.👍👏👏. Nearest in this area 20 odd miles.😂😂
That’s a really good idea - I may do that too.
Tiptoes in..... whispers.....Go on have a go ! I’m sure you will be fine. Don’t worry about everyone else,just find your zone and go....tiptoes out......
Happy running.......🏃♀️🏃♀️😀😀
Hehe...thankyou 😊
No tiptoeing and whispering Claire!
Shoulders back and head held high. Clears throat.....
“I am Claire Pottruff73 and I am a runner!”
I have no experience of parkrun but everyone says that they are friendly and supportive. What’s to lose?
Very true...😊
Claire, you could run this backwards! The events are entered by runners of all ages and ability. You'll have no problem at all
Your so right.😂😂😂
And on top of this, Claire has leggings with magical powers
Your on the ball Mike.👍😂I am just a newbie and a novice want to be runner.Good to have a laugh on the way.😂😂
I only started running at the end of last October. This programme is brilliant
Hehe 😂🤣 the magic is more in the legs lately 😉
Hehe...i would look a bit silly 😂🤣 although i look daft enough in my silly leggings anyway 🤣😂 thankyou though 😊
Nothing wrong with those leggings!
Oh yes, do it, do it, do it!
You will do great, start off not too fast and enjoy!
Ooooh...maybe...i.just need to.find a bit of courage!!!
Parkrun is welcoming and inclusive, so tell people you are new and listen to the new runners chat (I am sure you won't be the only one).
Warm up well before the start. Don't start at the front. Run at your pace. Register your club as NHS C25K. Take your barcode with you and enjoy an amazing event.
No need for nerves.
Thankyou...😊

Morning vs night time running
Early Morning or Evening Running?
I’ve only gone and done it 
Preferred time to run during the day.
