First run (walk)

After years of following various Parkrun social media accounts I finally went to my first one on Saturday. I went with a friend, both of us have had some major health issues this year so it was really good to do this together. We weren't out for a specific time, we just wanted to finish. The volunteers were so lovely, and encouraging. Unfortunately we missed the majority of the pre race briefing due to people talking - and we couldn't get closer due to said people blocking the way.

Still, I'm keen to go again. It has always seemed like such a good community effort and I really enjoyed seeing families together as well.
