Usual last run of the week inside the ParkRun. Forgot my headphones and had to dash home. Managed to get to the start line with 10 seconds to go. But I was all flustered, didn’t start the app off properly and so Sarah wasn’t there to give me time checks. Music played up at the start and everything seemed to be a disaster. Calmed down after 1k and managed a new PB of 35:19 and, best off all, kept going and completed 5k without stopping! But... sub 30 minute 5k seems pretty impossible at the mo! Will I ever get there? 3 runs til 🎓💪🏽

Well done Tash! You are becoming a seasoned runner so Sarah is just your comfort blanket! Confidence will bring your parkrun times down. Congrats on running whole 5k! 👍
I've just graduated for the second time (indoors on treadmill and now outdoors) and my time for 5k is 43+ minutes! You are doing amazingly well, most people don't make the 5k by the time they graduate
Well done Tasha99! That's a wonderful result! 35minutes is fabulous, 7 minute KMs! You should be delighted 🌞🏃♀️💪. Congratulations on finishing week 8, I'm wondering if I should have a go, tummy still not happy (TMI)
