Parkrun
  • Member of Essington Harriers since 2022

I did my first Parkrun in 2014 after being dragged along by my cousin and went on to do a few more without going much further.

A couple of 10ks and a half marathon followed over the next few years. I then spotted a few harriers at the Wolves 10k in 2022 and thought I’d go along to the club seen as it was only down the road.

Since then more races have followed and even a couple of marathons (despite being adamant I’d never do one!!)

Running was once a chore but not since joining the club. Brilliant club and a great bunch of people!
