Afternoon, did parkrun today with one of Shondo’s work colleagues ( she did it with the other one) who was doing her first outdoor 5k as she has only ever done runs on a treadmill. They are training for their first 5k race in Inverness. They chose ideal weather conditions today.

Cross country done and dusted. Knackered now. Good though and I was particularly pleased with my downhill running in the mud. I trusted my shoes and just went for it 😊.

Belated happy birthday to SarahWoo.
GWS, GM.
parkrunned this morning; back below the 45 minutes (just), which was a relief. Missed a 60% age grading by a whisker.

Have a pH weekend, what's left of it.

Good running, Columba.

I tell myself that as the days get less cold parkrun times will improve - well, it's a theory anyway, I hope it'll be true!
