    great work!!! keep it up, where's the next event going to be?

    I used to run treadmills a few years ago it was ok but kinda boring. And now that I have started again im doing it just outside and im finding it way more fun.

    They are in the same places every week, loads of places across the country, check parkrun.com for a list of all the locations

    Great achievement!!! You should be very proud of yourself. I hope to do one in October when I finish my C25K (which I would strongly recommend to all who would like to get started).

    i ran/walked when i did my first 5K 2 yrs ago. Keep at it, you'll eventually get stronger and faster at it and soon you'll be running marathons!

    Congrats!!
