Week 8 Run 2 - Park Run

Just finished my 2nd Park Run 5K in 38 mins. I kept running beyond the 28mins obvs but felt quite good and didn’t even stop to walk. Don’t think I’ll make a 5K in 30 mins by next week (Week 9) though somehow. Not sure how long after graduating C25K that will take me... Fantastic atmospheres at those Park Runs! Would highly recommend!

I can't believe you're already running your second parkrun before you've even graduated, way to go! I graduated last July, and I've still not run 5k in 30. I suspect you'll get there without too much drama, just keep doing it 😊

Hey! Oh thanks! That’s great to hear that you graduated a year ago and still keeping up with the running. I hope I will stick at it too! Thanks for your kind words and advice too! X

Yep, I'm hooked! I don't worry too much about speed (no point, I'll never be particularly fast) but I just love getting out, with or without company, and I always feel great after a run. And I get to wear shocking pink! 😁
