Night-owl Jan 2016 5:16pm, 2 Jan 2016 22,421 posts	0 Night-owl I may join you. Not done 5km since May 2014 so no idea what sort of time I can do.

geordiegirl Jan 2016 5:25pm, 2 Jan 2016 7,668 posts	0 geordiegirl no park runs here but I've found a 5k route took me 37.24 today, so a starting point for me. I would like to aim to do ParkRun when I'm home next Saturday but not sure if I'll manage it.
Mrs Hamish Jan 2016 5:44pm, 2 Jan 2016 1,145 posts	0 Mrs Hamish Hi I will be aiming for this later in the year after VLM. Need to shave 39 secs off my PB. Good to encourage each other.
Alice the Camel Jan 2016 5:46pm, 2 Jan 2016 2,335 posts	0 Alice the Camel I like the idea of mini goals - 31 minutes is a good one to aim for, thanks McG
SarahWoo Jan 2016 8:32pm, 2 Jan 2016 6,973 posts	0 SarahWoo I'm in! Have always wanted a sub-30 5K. My parkrun PB is 32.04 and I'm nowhere near that at the moment so there's a long way to go. I intend to run parkrun as many times as I volunteer this year so you never know, I might just get there.

Rosehip Jan 2016 9:17pm, 2 Jan 2016 6,430 posts	0 Rosehip I have 2 barriers, the first is actually getting to parkrun and the second is the magic 30minutes. I've not managed either since December 2013
GimmeMedals Jan 2016 9:22pm, 2 Jan 2016 13,911 posts	0 GimmeMedals Is there a 5k route you can run, RH? Then just track your improvements over the year. It will still count
