Did my first ever 5km on Saturday, The Hampstead Heath Park Run. 23.48. Off a diet of approx 1 run a week, with no warm up and shattered from a new job. More than a little chuffed as was also told the course was around 2 minutes slower than a flat one (christ you can see my past with Time Trials in that comment can't you?). Before hand I'd have been chuffed with getting around 25-26, now looking for sub 21 before the end of August.
Oh and I'm sure they've been mentioned on here before but how ace are park Run events?
