7 miles including 5k parkrun

After my wet lettuce of a run on Thursday today was awesome.

2 miles warmup as I jogged to the parkrun (7.30 min/mile pace) and then a sub 20 min 5k for the first time in my life at the Bramhall parkrun. After catching my breath and watching some more finishers I then jogged the 2 miles back at 7.30 pace again.

Parkruns are completely awesome events that make me proud to be part of the human race. Generally starting at 9am on Saturday morning at locations all over the UK they are free 5k races where your time is published on the website. The Bramhall event is getting quite popular with over 500 runners most weeks. I forgot to look at the number on my token but hopefully I finished near the top 20.
