Would have liked all splits to start with a 5, but can't complain! Maybe I sandbagged my expectations a little, but under 18:20 was outside any expectations at all.
Club teens did well too, cracking race. 14:07 for the win, 16:21 for 100th place!

Just shows the benefit of a properly quick course and properly quick participants. You won't see any parkruns with 18:14 only bagging you 217th place. Everyone on here would PB without a doubt!

I could have entered the scottish 5k champs next friday which is fast, accurate and in same place as edin parkrun but I am too late, its closed. Never mind, chances are I will get a higher placing when I do parkrun the following morning

That’s a great effort larkim. I’m pleased to have come away with 18:50 and a ~20 sec PB at Harrogate today, despite it being significantly softer than previous runs there (and also using the uncut grass rather than path on one side of the loop). Felt like a solid workout. I’ll keep my eyes open for a fast course and a chance to break 18 mins over the summer.

Nice one Larks. Scraped under 20 at Harrow parkrun this morning. It’s definitely not flat and no one to follow really.

Nice one JDA. 19:31 for me on grass too - looks like I’ll need 3-4 more weeks to get back under 19 and then we’ll see where the plateau settles out!
I thought I’d said brilliant to Larks somewhere else. Anyway, brilliant!

Just laughing at the 2:53 prediction for a marathon that WAVA now calculates for me!

If the predictor says it then you’ve just got to execute now Larks. Easy.
Oh, actually, given I ran 2:57 off a 36:29 10k perhaps it’s not going to be 100% easy but I’m sure you’ll convert up the distances better than me.
Race off at Snowdonia for us. I think I need to improve a LOT to be competitive!!
