All anomalies in the table have been corrected, I think. Nozza is in, as I was finally able to find last week's Penrose results.

I’m glad someone can find them lol.

Two weeks off for me as away on holiday and logistically too difficult getting to a parkrun with cases and children that don’t run.

going against the wind 3 times really takes it out of you had a lovely way to go round the turning point though grab streetlight and swing. even led for a while now for Eastbourne marathon next Saturday.

I have three times of 29:07, two of which were in successive runs.
After today's run I now have three times of 27:49 as well.

Portsmouth Lakeside is quite sheltered from the prevailing south-westerlies. It rained quite a bit though.

We're number 1! We're number 1! (Well, equal anyway.) :D That actually looks way too bumpy a profile for Southsea.

I second GU's 'great stuff'.

Beat Kev for the first time today - fun race at Black Park, although I started too far back or I'd have got a faster time. 7 seconds faster than last week, but twenty on my watch :)
