Jell6Graduate in reply to WalkingWithLabradors

I think if you scroll through the posts there is an April graduates post from Bluebirdrunner. If you read that it tells you to let her know your username.

Then your graduate stamp appears when you post on the website πŸ€—

Fabulous!

Congratulations! How was the Park Run? I thought of doing it for my graduation, took my barcode, but chickened out and ran on my own

WalkingWithLabradors profile image
WalkingWithLabradorsGraduate in reply to Mand102

A Do it Mand102. I was on my own with others if you know what I mean. As they were running back from mid point they were saying β€œWell done” β€œGo for it!” I did it in my own time. I’m going to try a flatter course for my next one. πŸ˜‰

Mand102 profile image
Mand102Graduate in reply to WalkingWithLabradors

I will do it at some point. My barcode is ready and it's only a few minutes walk from where I normally run which is ideal! Just got beaten by my anxiety that day. It's like walking into a pub of strangers on your own haha, not quite got the guts just now.

WalkingWithLabradors profile image
