I've had Sunday races recently, so have been keeping Saturday runs to a pootle, avoiding anything that might tempt me into trying to run faster pre-race.

Sorry Sigh.
I'll try to add any i do midweek, though at the moment I am doing slightly longer ones as I'm preparing for a 10k

MrsP posted her fist ever fake parkrun this week, so Iā€™m passing on thanks from a long-standing but forum-averse Fetchie for keeping it rolling.

No worries folks, I'm just maintaining the thread, you all do whatever works for you. Glad it's helping MrsP.

I haven't done a Fakey since (goes off to check....) 19th June; wish I hadn't lapsed, to be honest.

Sigh! Get out there NOW!

Well, maybe not right now, you're probably working. Soon, then.

I've done four realparkruns so far: before that , I barely ran for over amonth due to injury. Might try to revisit one of my courses this week.
