First Park Run tomorrow...wish me luck!

[bananahead]

Graduated a month ago, have tried PR unofficially ( sadly had to walk abit), and practiced the route on my day off. Tomorrow is the day, I've downloaded my barcode, sorted my gear out, had a light dinner and put the wine back in the fridge. 😣

Really nervous as I can't always finish the full 5k, but I'm going to try.

Happy Running everyone.

Good luck! My first is the following Saturday. Hope you enjoy it.

Thank you, you too.

Don’t forget your barcode!

No need to be nervous, if you can’t complete the full 5k tomorrow then walk a little, you won’t be the only one for sure. The support is amazing, and they’ll cheer you regardless of if you sprint, run, jog, shuffle, walk, or crawl over that finish line. Go have fun.

Enjoy. It’s amazing. I’m excited myself, I’m doing my 40th Parkrun tomorrow. Can’t wait.

Just relax and enjoy the atmosphere. You’ll be great, the crowd will pull you along, but as said if you need a little walking break, take it.

40! Wow, now that's a goal to aim for!

[damienair Graduate in reply to bananahead]

The first big milestone is 50. When you run 50 Parkruns you get a red Parkrun t-shirt with 50 on the back. I’m aiming to get mine in September.

Good luck 😉

Good luck! I'm doing my first Parkrun tomorrow too!

[Stephen_UK Graduate in reply to Debston]

Good luck! I hope you will all report back.

[Debston Graduate in reply to Stephen_UK]

Will do! I'm a bit nervous to be honest, but determined to do it!

[Stephen_UK Graduate in reply to Debston]

The excitement and adrenalin will carry you through.

[Hatman Graduate in reply to Debston]

Go and enjoy it Debston. It will be a great experience.

[Laurzmum Graduate]

I was really nervous on my first. Now done 6 and i can honestly they are the great. Everyone is friendly and you get encouragement over the line regardless of you time or speed. Have a good run 🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♂️👟

You can walk a bit if you need it ! Go for it but at your speed

[Beccym Graduate]

Just run at your own pace. It doesn't matter if you walk a little, means that you will have a bench mark and something to improve on.

PB against your name is always good even if it's only a couple of seconds.

Good luck slow and steady is the mantra. But most of all enjoy it!
