3 x 5ks done now, (Saturdays are my β€˜bigger’ runs), today’s one being my first Parkrun and each one a minute quicker than the last!! πŸ’ͺπŸƒπŸ½β€β™€οΈπŸ‘ŸπŸ…. Feeling pretty pleased with myself, more so because I was convinced that I was the last runner of the day, but when the results came out there was 2 other behind me!! That was my personal achievement today, not to be last and I wasn’t. Weather was absolutely shocking, I really couldn’t have picked a worse day for my first one, but loved it all the same.

Photo is from the start as hubby ended up taking a video clip of me crossing the finish line.

Well done! Our park run doesn't have many slow runners, so I'm always near the back too!
