I signed up for it a few weeks ago and also was supposed to do my first 5k last Sunday but then Covid struck me down 😢.I’m absolutely devastated as I am so careful but it’s struck the whole family down.

Still I intend to give it my best shot around the house and garden - if someone managed a marathon in the living room how bad can it be??? I just have to hope my legs find the strength now.

Good luck to everyone taking part - we can do this.

That is really rotten luck. Please don't try this unless you are fully recovered though. But if you do then good luck to you - try not to plough a furrow in your garden 😂😂😂

Thanks Fionamags and I think you’re right, I’m far from recovered but the thought of admitting defeat was winning the argument. I suppose sometimes you have to lose the battle to win the war! Hope you have your best 5k ever!

Thanks! Do you know that you can walk this if you want to? Maybe that would be an option for you if you are not up to running just yet?

That might be achievable, at least if it gets too much I’m at home anyway so can just stop - perfect solution, thank you 😀
