Having completed C25K earlier this week I headed off this morning for my first 5K Parkrun. Managed to do the 5K in around 39 minutes and enjoyed the experience, lots of runners and some good banter. My next step is to consolidate my C25K week 9 performance and try to pick up the pace a bit over the next few weeks and then, in a months time, run the same Parkrun and check my performance. Well happy today 😀
