Awesome time Huntsman, well done! 
Ran ardiff parkrun this morning for the first time in 4 weeks, in 21:42 - had hoped to go a little faster, but think I need to re-learn how to pace sub-22 after so many years being slower, as I keep going off too fast.
A few of us from the club did a quiz night last night - a friend of one of the girls was doing it as a charity fundraiser for VLM. I didn't drink, but one of the lads had 3 pints of Guinness as he said he was taking it easy today. I said I wouldn't be happy if he still beat me, of course he went past me around 3.5K and I couldn't hang on. Should have had a  myself! 
Ooh, how exciting that you get to go to Canada with Garfield Funky! We're going to be at VLM supporting with our club, but I'm hoping I may be able to stop off at Fetchpoint at some point too.

Nice running Jenny. If aiming for sub-22 I reckon you don't need to run the first mile any quicker than 7:10-7:20. The positive boost of overtaking others will get you a faster time.

Well done to those PBing at parkrun today. I took it easy getting round in 29:05 but more importantly the knee held up to all the left turns!

Great parkrunning folks! I just dragged myself out for a small 1.5 miles to get the legs going after Brighton.
They're not feeling too badly now...earlier in the week my quads were complaining after walking a mile! They shouldn't complain, I could have forced them to walk up the stairs at work (4th floor office) but I kindly gave them a break.

Parkrun for me too, tootled round a busy one in 26 mins but beat my next door neighbour in the last mile so happy with that.
Ran there and back so 10 miles in total.
