At my daughter's suggestion my husband (68) and I (64) are going to do a parkrun in London when we visit her in August so we are on week 1 and have done 2 runs so far. Not as scary as I first thought they might be!

All the best for your park run in August, by starting to train now with C25K you will have plenty of time for that run, no it's not too scary, by week 9 which will be just in time for that park run both of you will have graduated.
