A pretty easy feeling 33:38 on a real parkrun course (Strathclyde), more or less. Needed an extra 150m at the end, so I went wrong somewhere on what is amongst the easiest of courses to navigate. (There are newly surfaced paths, I wonder if they have also been realigned. Not visited in sixteen months (it was in the plague lands).

It was! Consistently the most infected area of Scotland, and the park is right between the two main towns. There was, apparently, a consistently high level of "socialising". (Do I remember that you had a moho stop there one time?)

We've not visited there yet, but it's on our list. I didn't realise there was a parkrun so close the the caravan site :)

26.13 for my fake parkrun today. I think this is the closest I've ever got to my predicted time, which was 26.17. I ran along by the river bank & the footpaths are very hard due to the lack of rain we haven't had recently.
Time to give the old feet a soak.

Back to tail-end duty this week with a fat 39:xx - distracted by the gym and the tennis club.
