Well I was anxious last night about the 25min run of week 6 but I believed in myself and did it. Took myself back to the coast like last week and ran before the Park Run started. Loved the run, when I felt โ€œThe Toxic Tenโ€ creeping in I focused on a group of swimmers about to enter the sea which took my mind elsewhere. From then on, apart from it being a tad warm even at 7.30am it was lovely. Watched the park run afterwards, it was great seeing it from the start. But Oh My...there was a man running in bare feet ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿคข. Thank you lovely peeps for all of your support when I have a wobble. ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š

Congratulations Suebuzz on completing run 3 of week 6, you are now OFFICIALLY a RUNNER, o my goodness me, seeing a man at a parkrun running barefoot, I wonder what his time was after the run, a bit dangerous considering the fact that there may have brocken glass on the course somewhere.

He was there last week aswell - quite fast I would say under 30mins - made my toes curl.

Ouch, good time for him, Zolla Bud from South Africa used to run barefoot back in the 80's.
