Seven years ago, I signed up for the Auckland half marathon series. Although it’s been purely a bucketlist item for me, I thought I might as well improve my running style.

Another reason for me to do the five halfs across Auckland: five medals which were supposed to fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. I mean, how fun!
Except the year I did it, they changed the design. No more jigsaw 🥲

The locations were epic, but running the series didn’t exactly reignite my love for running and when friends told me about Parkrun I just added it to the “one day” pile.

Six months ago a new Parkrun location started just 10 walk from home and this week, I finally took the plunge and signed up.
And I still got it: 5 km in 28:16 min 🔥

Note to self: stop putting things off and finally give them a go.
What’s something you’ve been wanting to do forever?
