Parkrun

I’m not a runner by any means, in fact I can’t stand it. But the new year,brought a new idea. Myself,wife and a group of friends decided to try the parkrun @ Kingsbury water park. It’s changed our attitudes to running. It’s fun, friendly and definitely worth having a go. We can now do 5 km in 30 mins. Which is a massive improvement.

Look for your local parkrun on a Saturday morning.
