Hi all! Today was my W9R1 so decided to give my local park run a try. 367 runners & I finished 335th! In a time of 41 mins 51 seconds! I’m still on cloud 9. The fastest time was under 18 minutes....are they even human?! But I loved it! Yes the last 11 mins I had to dig deep but I did it. I’m also doing the British Heart Foundation run 26.2 miles throughout May. Raising money while keeping up with my running! Anyone else signed up for this?

Thank you! It certainly won’t be my last. I’m going to make it a regular event, even if it’s not every week, I’ll try for twice a month x
