What you think you look like during #parkrun versus what you actually look like. So disheartening. @Wilmslowparkrun @parkrunUK

The stages of a parkrun 🌳 Start 💬 "Ready? I was born ready. Go!" 😬 1k 💬 "This is so much fun!" 😃 2k 💬 "Are you sure this isn't a marathon?" 😳 3k 💬 "I can't do it..." 😩 4k 💬 "Yes I can!" 💪 5k 💬 "Boom! When's the next Olympics?" 😊 🌳 #loveparkrun

@parkrunUK my hubby who is only 59 has just ran his 5th parkrun at the lovely Shepton Mallet on Saturday and he got yet another pb 31.50. He has Alzheimer’s so wears his plastic barcode pinned to his shirt so the scanners can see it, 😢because he forgets. #alzheimerawareness
