First Parkrun

[Erddig]

Today is the day. It’s about 10 weeks since I graduated and this is my first Parkrun. I’ve covered the ground so I know what to expect. My time is still slow, but it’s a lot faster than it was last October when I started C25K.

Keep running.

Slow and steady and take it gently... hopeful the weather is kinder, than it is here at the coast... Enjoy!!

It’s awful. Wind, rain not too cold though.

Thanks everyone for you good wishes and support. It was fantastic. I finished and I’m waiting for my time. I expect it’s around 50 mins but it’s the taking part that counts. I picked a good day, it was the run’s birthday. I got cake at the end. What’s not to like.?

[Erddig Graduate]

52 minutes.

I’m glad you got to parkrun! The atmosphere is great and everyone is so supportive and welcoming. There is often cake! I think it’s a thing: runners eat cake afterwards 👍
