I did it! The first ever 5k I have run in my life! Including a horrible hilly bit three times. I didn't stop or walk though. And everyone was so lovely and reassuring. I enjoyed the Halloween costumes too. My time was 35.31, so really proud!

Great job... congratulations on that 5k and the PB that comes with it! I assume you’ll be back there soon.
I don't know if I'll do it regularly, because I usually take my son to football at that time. But maybe I can alternate with my husband. I'm sure I will do it again soon.
Although he's just worked out that I'm in the bottom 15% which doesn't feel that good!
The top 60% at least have been doing this a lot longer than you!
Also, and more importantly, it’s not about running it’s about YOU running.

Fantastic well done. Isn’t parkrun great 👍🏼
Well done! That’s a great time, especially with hills! I’ve done 1 park run and loved it
Awesome work! 5k & park running! Must call for double celebrations! Great time too! 🎉🙌
Great stuff. Well done. It sounds like my local Parkrun in Luton which is three and a bit laps with a hilly bit on every lap and then again just at the finish.
That’s a brilliant time. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

You should be really proud of your time, that is a brilliant achievement in such a short period of time, how long ago is it that 90 sec was almost impossible???
