It was hot out there today.
I went to Erddig, instead of the usual Wepre Park. Much flatter course, and I'm glad I did after a lot of training this week 
The bacon butty undid all the hard work though |

I've done them before. Their a bit of fun and it's nice to see so many people coming together. But on the whole not much use to be because family life and work get in the way. Maybe when the kids are older I could try and persuade them to come alone with me. |

Dragged myself out this morning for the first time in ages.
Beautiful day for it running the hills and Woodlands at Wepre 
5km was over before I knew it though, but you go for the fun and atmosphere |

I was marshalling this morning as I have a race this afternoon. Also needing to schedule more volunteering than running at the moment as trying to coincide. One and my partner's 100 runs on the same day and I'm about 10 ahead at the moment!
Managed my fastest time for 3 1/2 years last week though! |

Thanks! I think it has, I ran blenheim half last weekend on very tired legs and a bugger of a course and managed my fastest half for 3 years so I'm taking that as a good sign! |

"It's nearly Parkrun day! Anyone planning on attempting a PB?
Doesn't everyone try for a PB every time?
Cal"
I’d rather be setting a realistic goal..Not achieving a PB is so disappointing |

It actually wasn't as bad as forecast thank goodness, just a few showers, a bit windy in places and even some sunshine |

I confess, I did one yesterday. Boy do I hurt today! But it's a good hurt!! The marshals were amazing though. I was encouraged and cheered on the whole way. One even came to find me and give me a hug as he was proud of my tenacity. Can't believe I once did the London Marathon and ran 10k's for fun!! |

Not been for a few weeks though, but at least an incentive to turn up just to show the t-shirt off
