Hello and well done to everyone that has been running this week! πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌ Also big thank you Mummycav πŸ’and Folkylass πŸ’for the graduate posts and all the information and ideas you throw at us - I read you faithfully every week 😊Quick update on my side! I have completed my consolidation run number 10, which has been my first Parkrun! And I loved it πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°

This was the first time I run for over 30 minutes, actually it took me 36 minutes to complete the 5k, and they were the muddiest and hill-iest 36 minutes of my life πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜… but it was great fun. New location, a route rather than my customary laps, and lots of people and dogs made for a fantastic experience!

So far, after graduation, I have done:

- 1 walk jog with my daughter πŸ‘πŸΌ

- 8 thirty min runs whilst in Spain πŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸ₯΅

- 1 Parkrun today in England 🌳❀️

My plan going forward is to do one 30 min run AND one Parkrun a week for the next few weeks.

Best of luck to everyone next week! Happy running πŸƒπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸƒπŸΌβ€β™€οΈ
