Fifty-ninth parkrun
Mar. 4th, 2017 12:23 pmBack at Riverside following last week's tourism and a respect 20:25 finish, despite truly terrible start which left me stationary for at least 10 seconds after the whistle waiting for the log jam ahead of me to clear. Then, once we were going, I spent the first couple of minutes pushing up the field until I found people to pace with, but the rest of the run was pretty smooth and it gave me an excuse for not pushing the pace hard over the second half.
With L away, M down with an injury, and E running at Killerton, I didn't have long to wait for D&P to cross the finishing line. Afterwards we adjourned to their place where L&S, visiting ahead of their move back to Exeter, were busy with breakfast. The others all tucked in while I sat on the floor, at which point Dasher crawled on to me and started slurping off all the mud from the playing fields. Lovely!
