5k parkrun achieved

[ReggieBear]

I completed my first 5k Parkrun yesterday morning and I feel fantastic and somewhat emotional!

It was beautiful to have the volunteers there applauding you as you completed various parts of the route.

When I finished I went and had a well-deserved bowl of 190 calorie porridge from Micky D's plus 2 small bananas I'd taken with me and a cup of black coffee too!

I followed the wk6run3 and then wound it back a bit to complete the full 5k!!

Feel great today and will complete another again in 2 weeks! #TogetherWeAreBeautiful #LivingTheDream #5kParkrun

Well done Reggie, be warned you might have this urge to get up and do it every Saturday. It’s my favourite run of the week.

[ReggieBear in reply to Dexy5]

Thank you. I might even ask if they want another volunteer on my 'off' weeks!

[Dexy5 Graduate in reply to ReggieBear]

That is equally satisfying. I love making a noise and cheering people on. You just have to get yourself on the volunteers list . There should be a link in your results letter. If you Tailwalk it is classed as a run as well. Sometimes I run and then sort tokens which gives a run and a volunteer tick.

I am thinking of doing a local park run Saturday, your post has given me the green light 👣👣 well done on your run, hope it leads to fabulous things in the future 🤪

You won't regret it! It's a fantastic experience and I'm not just saying that, it felt truly humbling and proud to achieve and for the volunteers who cheer and applaud you enroute

Let me know how you get on

Congratulations on your first Parkrun and your PB time. It’s a great way to finishing the last run of each week.

I just love Parkrun. It’s a great way to meet people too. Enjoy the next 3 weeks left in the C25K plan.

I still remember the ‘buzz’ after my first parkrun. Congratulations.
