Morning!

Lots of luck to the racers this weekend and have fun all those parkrunning.
5 miles done and dusted so feeling virtuous. Out for another walk later, the sea beckons.
In answer to AR's question from yesterday, I shall not be swimming, the sea looks very inviting in the sunshine but I don't think I could do the Bay of Biscay in November without a wetsuit and there was no room in my case :-(

luck to racers!

Managed to get a 70% for parkrun according to Fetch. Course measured a bit long on my Garmin so official % is under.

Hello all, back to walking parkrun and I don't think I will get to 700 miles running this year :( . Knees have started objecting again (decreased mobility in the joint) so got telephone consultation next Monday. I had my flu jab last weekend which may just be a coincidence....

(((Jen))) hope you get better news on Monday. Maybe you are just a bit stiff after the flu jab. Fingers crossed.

I had a really tough run today - 17km but felt like twice that through the snow in the cold. One of those days where I'm wondering: "why do I do this again?"

But now I am waiting for baby to come back from his football match so we can go out for a big, late lunch. So that is why I do it! So I can eat loads :)
