Groundhog Apr 2020 5:46pm, 25 Apr 2020 779 posts	Quote Pin Groundhog 24:58 and a course PB by 1 second I live on a hill, which is not massive, but feels absolutely desperate for the start and finish of a parkrun - I run up half of it at the start then all of it at the finish - and it has steep downhill steps after the first hill and 4 road crossings that make it only possible to do during lockdown when there are hardly any cars around. I did start today's run quite late when it had warmed up quite a lot, as I had waited in vain for my son to get out of bed. I think I would do better to have the company and someone to pace me up the last hill.
