Highlight of the week was having visitors back in school - We actually got to shake hands! I know some are still nervous of such a reckless act, but I have genuinely missed such a simple act that no only greets, but welcomes.
2 yrs ago I ran my first 5k after attending c-5k group. This week I qualified as a Leader in Running Fitness to be able to pay it forward and help the next few groups. I'm neither fast nor fit, but I am insured for £50m in case some fool follows my advice!
Rare 2021 outing at a 10k race this morning. The Warm-up hype-man was doing so well until '...is it coming hooooome?'. Stunned silence.
Yep - we were in Wales! #knowyourcrowd
Nice surprise today - graduated from the CS accelerator programme. Looking forward to teaching more of the curriculum next year. @WeAreComputing #CSAClassof21#HBHS
@jenbean90 When I first did parkrun I couldn't run it all in one go, but one of the more experienced runners got me to just add 1minute to my run before walk each week. It genuinely worked a treat and I adapted it as my distances increased. Hope it helps
@jenbean90 My top - ignore the distance. Start with 20mins (which you can already do) and then add 10% per week. Soon you'll be doing 4 and 5km no problems.
I used this method to get from 5 to 10k and then on to HM (over many many months - but I did it).
