Parkrun virgin....

But no more 😂😂😂

Had a blast, totally loved it and would really recommend it to anyone who hasn’t run one before.

Surprised as I thought it was for fun!! The whole parkrun was in front of me, it was like they all sprinted!! ...well felt that way. I could here oldfloss in my ear ‘slow & steady’ & really tried not to get carried away as I was determined to run for the whole 5k!! Had to conquer Mount Everest too and Ben Nevis....seriously what is that all about 😂. I was so relieved to hit the 4K marker & then almost panic when I knew I was running for the first time past 30mins 😱😱. However I wasn’t being beat by the gremlins and said to myself ...I am earning my Gin’S tonight!! Boom it worked and before I knew it I completed two firsts!! A full 5k run and running more than 30mins 😀😀.

Happy running everyone & a great weekend.

And back to 30mins for me on Monday..phew! 😅 xx

Brilliant

So glad you enjoyed it - I think it's fab!

Great achievement running it all as well. I tried for the first time today (didn't quite manage it) it's considerably more difficult than walking some of it x

Well done! PR is for everyone, walkers, pram pushers, dog walkers - and people out for PBs. The trick is to run at your pace and not worry about anyone else. Here's to the next one 👏
