I’ve been counting down to parkrun 125 - halfway to the next T-shirt - for a few weeks now! Today I finally made it. The best thing ever was that my gorgeous HU love - GTFC - joined me for it on his very first parkrun ever!

👍 😍 Lovely photo of both if you Tasha99, congratulations on completing your 125th +1 parkrun and well done to GTFC on his first.You are such a lovely couple, as far as I know both of you are the first couple to meet and fall in💕here on Healthunlocked, are you thinking of getting married?, that would be wonderful or perhaps just be the best of running friends. 😊 🏃🏾.

Great now, but last week saw me limping with infected insect bites, and well on my way to cellulitis. Antibiotics have fixed that.

I'm gradually creeping up my longest distance, and can now comfortably do an early morning HM and still be able to function for the rest of the day. My next target is 30km.

You can do it! Then a full I suspect?!

nowsterMetric Marathon in reply toTasha99

I'll probably nibble away at it gradually. Maybe 30, 33, 36, 39, 42. I'm in no rush.

I know weird stuff starts happening once you get past 30km/3 hours, so I have to be careful. On the other hand, I'm really pleased at how quickly I bounced back after the 26km run.

I have a suspicion I'll end up not being a marathon race runner, but someone who can do the marathon distance without the pressure.
