I was so nervous before it started and wanted to go home! It was so much fun! Still waiting for my time but I think it was under 35 minutes.🤞🏻

Wow! Well done! Amazing! Let us know when you know.

I'm think of doing one next Saturday with my sister-in-law, but I'm a bit intimidated...

Do not be! They’re fab! I walked my first back in February in 47 minutes and now I’m chasing sub 29. My friend ran in with the tail walker today. No one judges you! Do it! You’ll not look back!
