W1R6 - wellll... Sort of

[Katnap]

Last duo run with my son before starting the group C2 5K! We actually did a Week 2 run as we are on a 2day rest before we go back to 1 minute jogs.

The Parkrun organisers were promoting the group C2 5K. No idea how many will be there but I will post on the experience next week.

That’s gonna be a good group then... parkrunners are great and they understand us beginners more than the average runner, they see a lot of us.

Well done taking in a week 2 run... enjoy the group, you’ll pick up a lot of tips I’m sure.

Dont be compelled to run 5k as your graduation run. These groups tend to use Parkrun as a graduation run meaning a 5k run. This forum is aligned to the NHS C25k programme which requires you to run for 30 mins , three times during week 9, to become a graduate. A few manage 5 k in 30 mins, most don't. 5 k can come later if need be 👍🏼

Thank you Millsie-j.

I'm on a promise to do a Santa Run about 5 weeks postgrad.

I'm in no rush to do a parkrun so I will follow your suggestion and maintain the the final week of the C25k as training
