Well done Sweetie - I would take the 8.10 and WAVA pb. I think the gun time would only important in placing people in the race??

Gorgeous day here! I was meant to be taking some of my Afghan family on a daytrip but must just cancelled. I will see her at some point but it is a shame as it is bright and sunny which does not happen that often up here!

Congratulations on the PB Sweetie

Hope all the Park Runners have had good runs and a big Thank You to all the volunteers.

A surprisingly quick 8 miles for me this morning as I set out for an easy run.

Parkrun was ok. It's a perfect morning, maybe a little cool but lovely and sunny. And though I did manage a lot fewer walking breaks (in fact only one, on the second pebble hairpin bend) and three sub 10 miles I'm still a long way from the magic sub 30. Sigh.

Sweetie
Thanks for the feedback, it would appear that the results were 5 seconds out anyway - everyone's times were off, so I will definitely stick with my Garmin time. :-)

RRR-CAZ 🇬🇧 To clarify there was no chip mat at the start, only one at the finish. So timing was from the gun for all runners, not when individuals crossed the start line.

I also had a storming run (for me) at parkrun this morning 28.01, my fastest 5k for 15 years!

Bloody ace morning. Aimed for sub 27 and got it. Lovely to see familiar faces and meet new ones and dogs.

Another +1 for a PB from me too Sweetie. If you got a chip time from crossing the start to finish I would take that every time. If the race don’t give that then I think Garmin time is 100% fair. It does a social good too otherwise anyone aiming for a PB would be pushing to the front at the start and causing chaos.

Standard parkrun for me. Still a bit of a struggle. My watch had 28.53 seconds. Official time 28.54. I needed 53 seconds for last stopwatch bingo!!! :(
