And are we starting in the same place as in February? Trying to figure out whether I can squeeze parkrun in first.

I suspect so sallykate. Given we are finishing at the same pub. That start point works well, so probably no reason to change it for this time. Similarly, I suspect it will also be the same route as last time Mrs Jigs (Luverlylegs)

Mrs Jigs (Luverlylegs)
Thanks TeeBee :-)

We are doing Thames Path parkrun, not sure how far we will run later, will see how we both are.

I may do my old local, Hilly Fields, but it cuts it a bit fine for getting to the TBC start. Burgess would be a safer option (and is one I haven't done before).

Then I'll be run/walking some and walking the rest - I want to complete the 10 miles - so will be late at the pub.

I'm less likely now, though still hopeful. Someone in my extended family of marriage has died. It's not someone that I particularly know or will mourn, but it's the sibling of someone close to me, and distance is involved, so I may need to be doing airport runs or providing a shoulder to cry on. I'll know more in the next couple of days.

😔 sorry for your family member, Linds, and for you too. I’m less certain now, too, because travel is more of a problem than I was anticipating and I’m not asking C to hang around for me for hours. I’ll give it some thought.

It looks quite likely that I'll be coming after all. :)

I've worked out a 5.5 mile route for those who want to go shorter or walk. It still involves crossing some bridges.
