Week 3

Hi, I can’t believe I have almost completed 3 weeks. I had an accident 2 years ago and after 6 months being on crutches I have been diagnosed with a chronic neurological pain condition in my knee (CRPS)

I never ever thought I would be doing this and I’m loving it! The small steps is fantastic for me and I have never felt so good.

Did my first park run last Saturday and stuck to my week but walked round the rest. Will be doing same again this week, such a lovely bunch of friendly people cheering you on.

Great work. Parkrun certainly is special, almost exactly the opposite of how I’d imagined it. Keep up the good work.

ParkRun and this forum really helped to keep me motivated and enjoying my running. Have fun tomorrow. 👍
