Re: Tube Challenge parkrun league...
Yes, somewhat gutted not to be able to keep the run going, but for some reason my breathing decided to be ropey for the first 4k and I couldn't make it up in the last one. Less than 20 seconds out though, so here's to next time!

Other way round - she was one of a dozen I sped past on my sprint finish, because I didn't want to be beaten on my course by so many tourists! Walk pacer this week after a kickabout in the park on Wednesday night practically hobbled me - the thought "football's mostly running, I'll be fine" was inaccurate!tubeguru wrote:I notice the woman overtaking you ...

Re: Tube Challenge parkrun league...
Actually, I may start parkrun soon - my potential Tube Challenge partner has run a few and seems convinced that I won't be able to beat him (to be honest, I think that it would take some serious effort on my part)! I think that in a few months, I should be happy to start.

Feel like I'm about the only regular who doesn't do Junior/Parkrun now then... Does a 70 minute football match count??......

Re: Tube Challenge parkrun league...
What to do when running is a stupid idea and missing parkrun is not an option? Walk a parkrun. 55:42 today

Paul Fielding, the man who has done more UK events than any other, recently voted that Wepre was the toughest. I reckon that Lanhydrock was tougher than Wepre though.

I just had to look up where Wepre is! (It's at Connahs Quay in North Wales if you're interested ).
