214th out of 216… but who’s counting? (Me… I definitely checked 😂)
My first ever parkrun ✔️
Ran a bit… walked a lot 🤣
Pushed a double buggy with my husband ✔️
Kept two tiny humans alive before 9am ✔️
Crossed the finish line ✔️
Was I the fastest? Absolutely not.
Did I think about quitting? Maybe
Did I finish? YES! 💚
Turns out parkrun isn’t about coming first—it’s about turning up, doing your best, and somehow convincing yourself signing up again next Saturday is a good idea. 😂
Here’s to the first of many… and maybe being 213th next time! 🫶🏃♀️
