disorganized felt light headed B4 race: checked pulse steady 58 no ectopics - same all morning. Not sure what's going on.
aimed at 97% SEAARR pace (=> 7:16/M 11:17.5/lap but hadn't worked this out); surprised by 1st lap 11:19 and thought it was too fast (in relation to previous time this course) but legs wanted to do their own thing as usual, so let them till (more or less) till final down-gradient where consciously resisted sprinting towards finish to leave some room for improvement (2nd lap 11:12).

About this parkrun

2 laps of wide undulating perimiter paths of War Memorial Park. Good surface and deceptively fast course. Plenty of free parking in Park and ride car park. Toilets don’t open till 8.45. Play area and visitor centre cafe.

Two lap tarmac course. Very popular event and a quick time is possible. No big climbs but some long drags can drain your time.

Two undulating laps on tarmac in Coventry Memorial Park. The route is pleasant and takes in most of the park and its environs. Good car parking which is good because it gets busy!

Well organised, slightly challenging but worth a try.

Very busy and congested at the start with a sharp 90° turn. All tarmac paths so good if its raining.

The route changes from time to time - now starts and finishes nearer the main car park and if you start around the expected finish signs for 28 or 30, it'll take 30-40 seconds to cross the line. Still a good course though. Route updated.

Around the Memorial Park, good course, always well attended.

Fantastically well organised,loads of signs at the start. 1km from train,great cafe.

flat,good tarmac surface,PB course

Congested second lap for faster runners weaving between inconsiderate slower runners (as slow we ran wide off the racing line).
