I was the only cow cowl at a very unattended minehead 78 only came 5th and slightly hampered by my friends dog 1st parkrun, I think being pulled along and not stopping and changing course all the time confused him. Still next week is the big one he staying in the car though.

A double update this week. Let me know if anything is obviously wrong.

I tried to move the goalposts for you, but obviously not far enough! :lol:

Not so good today - had a niggle all week and it really flared up, meaning around 32 minutes and finishing behind Kev for the first time in a while

My run was snowed off today. I think it's the first time that Cannock Chase has been cancelled for weather.

Think I saw today's was too, Al.

I walked/jogged/limped round Richmond - nice run if my leg had been okay, apart from the narrow start

Indeed, it was treacherously icy up there this morning. It's snowed most days this week, and the remains decided to freeze good and proper. Maybe next week ...

Walked most of it today - thanks to Andi for walking with me.

Riddlesdown is a nice route but muddy. Quite a walk from public transport so allow plenty of time if you give it a go

Made my Christmas Day debut at Melton Mowbray today. Thoroughly enjoyable parkrun in an excellent country park!
