Hi there. Hardly anyone gets to 5k in 30 minutes for graduation. Your only goal is to run for 30 minutes, 3 times in a week. So enjoy your graduation run, good luck!

Good luck! I’m too nervous about park run yet, as gear I’d be hours behind everybody

Great job, enjoy the graduation run... work on distance later, 3.6k is about 3.5k further than many of us could run in the spring!
