My experience of PE and competitive sport at school was frankly enough to give me a knee-jerk aversion to most forms of activity, bar the odd bit of Zumba and holiday hiking. I’m a relatively recent convert to this running lark, having attempted my first parkrun in April this year (with much trepidation but also encouragement from BWp regular and superb Couch to 5k coach Patrick Marshall). Nothing offsets the working week quite like it! I volunteer as often as I can, along with my BWp buddies Hollie Oxtoby and Chris Gibson, and we can usually be found in The Windmill Inn post-event close-down, enjoying a breakfast (refuelling!) with a side order of laughter. The conversations en route are a huge part of my love for this event and make Saturdays a highlight that I look forward to every week. This was my 19 th parkrun (18 of them have been here at BWp) I chose to walk the muddy course on this occasion and enjoyed a great chat with my Fitmums and Friends pal Polly Campbell (on her 125 th parkrun) along the way. and it’s the reason 143 perky participants, bolstered by 39 valiant volunteers, turned out on Saturday 9 December to cover that course, whatever the weather had ready to throw at us (Storm Elin, apparently!).
