It was quite hot 🥵 yesterday for my run 🏃🏼‍♂️ & like the silly Billy I am, a couple of hundred yards of it was by a dual carriageway. As there were road works, there was quite a tail back of traffic. The stink from all those exhausts was bl**dy awful.

Dvorak Apr 2021 2:22pm, 10 Apr 2021 22,255 posts	0 Dvorak Fakeparkrun on the toughest course I have ran for a while, the actual parkrun course at Plean. Which is usually a mudbath, but was very dry today. With a mate, so not all out, 38:40. Not quite my slowest. In the final stretch, light hail, turning into snow.
GimmeMedals Apr 2021 4:30pm, 10 Apr 2021 20,678 posts	0 GimmeMedals The weather sounds challenging, Dvorak. I'm happy with another SB - 40 seconds faster than last week and on Jabberknits' heels, with 33:49

Alice the Camel Apr 2021 10:14am, 17 Apr 2021 7,139 posts	0 Alice the Camel Still very reasonable jk, well run! I stuck to my regular route and am pleased to report a SB of 33:57. Happy with that, considering most of my 5k runs were around 38-40 mins at the start of the year
GimmeMedals Apr 2021 10:47am, 17 Apr 2021 20,717 posts	0 GimmeMedals That is a massive improvement, Alice 🌟🌟🌟 I’ve not had much joyful running this week so am logging yesterday’s 5k of 38:02
jabberknit Apr 2021 11:30am, 17 Apr 2021 3,913 posts	0 jabberknit Well done, AtC! Still a good run, GM, even if not joyful!
azx Apr 2021 11:34am, 17 Apr 2021 255 posts	0 azx Fake trackrun got me 23:40, knocking 44s off my last one 3 weeks ago. Very pleased with that. I think the it's good for pacing, but not very realistic for a parkrun. Needs must.
