Did first park run since graduating 35.41 happy out but found it tough went a little too fast at the start when they all took off!!!!lesson for next week as I intend going again it was lovely π. Now to get out during the week aiming for Tuesday and Thursday ...... it was at this point when I graduated before that I let things slip so determined to keep going maybe even make 35 by Christmas, time donβt matter but it gives me a little goal to aim for ....... happy running yβallπ

Still a great time for your first parkrun after graduation Cuig1975, that time of 35.41 is around the average time I do on a 5K, no parkruns anywhere near to where I live, however, I am going to cheer on the runners at a "Santa Dashπ " 5K run tomorrow morning near to where I live. π π

Great job getting out there and a very respectable time too. What Iβd do next time is walk the start for a minute, let the gazelles go, then get my run done.

The first half km on ours feels a bit like the opening rush at the January sales - not helped by a set of steps that bunch everyone up. Couple that with people running with dogs (that have no fear if getting hi nder your feet) and I've now concluded that I have to treat that bit as an extension of the warm up and properly settle into running once it opens out after the steps. It's still a good way to gauge progress though, and gave people to follow helps keep your pace up. Still waiting for the elusive 30min barrier 3 months after graduation but it'll come.
