Just found out that my 89 year old father-in-law did his first parkrun today.

I was in Leicester to visit our daughter. While she has a lie in on Saturday I went to Abbey Park. What a lovely park and clever route that manages to see the whole park with very little repetition. It would have been quick but for what felt like the start of a cold.

We did Abbey Park earlier this year Groundhog, and agree it was a lovely run in a nice park. Oddly though we saw two pretty nasty disputes between runners, one ending in proper handbags. Strange to see any time, but two in one morning....
