  • @juanito @doubleodavey I was there. Legs/Achilles have felt like shit all week, but I thought I should do my bit for the club. Got round in 57something. Ks 3 to 5 were awful- legs abandoned me - but then I just thought ‘scenic long run’ and settled in. The black mud on the high ground fucking stank. I’d bought a balance board to help with rehab from previous ankle sprain and it seems to have helped; but my body’s gradually being possessed by an old man. It’s frightening, but it’s also licence to eat more butterscotch while the world projects inappropriacy.

    Our (London Heathside’s) U20 men and senior women are inspiring.

  • @PhilPub thanks for the offer, i'd already done a parkrun in the morning and was also on Ralph carrying duty so couldn't take you up on it. Hope the injury gets properly sorted soon.

    @BringMeMyFix your club sounds like it is going places and improving, which is good. Are you taking teams to the 12 stage road relays?

  • I think so. They told us to stick it on the diary. Maybe see you there.

    It’s good to have a strong junior contingent. Hopefully the U20s will stay on board as seniors. I’ll try to keep one particular U13 involved (he wasn’t at Parliament Hill, but ran a 19:23 PB at Hove Prom parkrun!).
