W4R2

Just completed W4R2, completed 3.5k comfortably in the cooler slightly wet conditions. Just wondering whether to stick to my usual run on Friday or try going to my first parkrun. I know I won’t be able to run 5k but I’m curious whether I could do it through the combination of running and walking. Just to change things up from running on my own and having a bit of company.

Congratulations on completing run 2 of week 4, I think you should miss this Saturday and run run 3 of week 4 on Friday, the reason being next week it's week 5, so if you run on Friday, run runs 1 and 2 of week 5 on Monday and Wednesday of next week and at the parkrun on Saturday 8th June you can run run 3 of week 5, however, it's up to you how and where you want to run. 🏃

It's up to you whether you want to run the third run of week 4 on Friday or at the parkrun this Saturday, sorry if I confused you with the different days, runs and times. 😊 🏃

It makes sense if you remember that Run 3 of Week 5 is the first of the longer runs, I think.

Yes, good idea to give your local Parkrun a go and then you could make it a regular thing if you want to. I might have a go at my local Parkrun on Saturday, not sure if I can run the whole 5k but apparently lots of people walk or run / walk their way round the course.

Not what you're looking for?
