Having Ben Parkes as your pacer for your first half is pretty sick. 🔥🔥🔥
John is so lucky that he was able to run his first half with his celebrity friend Ben Parkes!
That course layout is absolutely mental 😂
I’m so pleased to see this John and Ellis on radio X / XFM got me through some very dark dark days where my drinking was also getting out of control. I found parkrun and running about 12 years ago and I’m now 8 years sober, 400+ parkruns, several half marathons and 2 ultra marathons. All the best for the marathon John, keep it up and thank you for getting me through those bad times
This feels significant!
We all need friends, like Ben.
Hearing John say that he's proud of himself sent me to tears. How far he's come. ♥
Love the Superblast 3 shoe choice! Such a great ride. Thanks for the positive vibes 🫶
I absolutely bloody love John Robins
It is always enjoyable seeing someone achieve a goal. Especially one that you can relate to. Thanks for sharing this.
