Lovely article about a 97 year old who just completed her 250th this morning in Belfast. She only took up running aged 88.

“it's just wonderful - people from all over Northern Ireland come and mix at Parkrun and you wouldn't have had people from all the communities mixing like that when I was growing up,"

Was slow at #parkrun today on 33.40 yet Mr Garmin thinks I got younger again, which was puzzling as usually when I feel good and run well Garmin says "you're only fit for the knackers yard".....I'll just assume that the algorithms for that are hilariously inaccurate for types that aren't stick thin running for days spirits...

#parkrun number 69 done today.

Huge thunderstorms overnight and this morning. Wasn't sure if it would be apocalyptic or not.

Rain ~stopped just before I left home (no more than a drizzle), still ok when I got there.
Did a full lap warm-up with a (fast) friend, who tried to convince me that she was going to run slow because she had to jog somewhere after.

Got to almost half way parkrun before she was too fast and I slowed down.

Shortly after scanning the heavens opened. Apocalyptic indeed

A hot morning at and I was very tired, so quite surprised to be only just over 32 minutes by my watch. A nice sunny day here but quite breezy. Officially in a drought now as you can see by the colour of the grass in the park.
