Got my first park run this morning and I’m so excited! One week away from being a graduate and I’m so proud of myself.

Any last min tips??

A dry sunny morning for your park run - Camperdown ?

Yeah I’m doing Camperdown! Have you done it? I’ve heard it’s mega hilly 😲😲

Very glad the weather has changed from yesterday! xx

No I've not done Camperdown - can never manage to get in - but friends who have said it's hilly but manageable - you'll do it !! Good Luck x

Hi JaoJao, it was great!! Tough to run on the different terrain - a lot of puddles and a lot more mud than I’m used to 🙈 but was really enjoyable and such a great atmosphere. That good I’m going back this weekend! Let me know how you get on, go smash it! ⭐️

Sounds amazing honey! I just started a thread too, oops! I'm not sure I would enjoy muddy terrain, but I hope it will be fairly dry in my local park :)

It’s definitely different running in mud - I had to walk up a big hill on my route because it was just too sloppy (which was pretty annoying!!) but you will love it! Can’t wait to hear all about it 🏃‍♀️
