It was a nice distance for a short walk Sola, the sun was shining with birds singing in the trees

good day for a walk. Is that done by Strava or Garmin?

No Doris8, for my walks I use the Mapmywalk app, for my runs excluding parkrun I use the Mapmyrun app.

It now is a great route CBDB, the council have improved and upgraded the paths over the last few weeks, so it will be much easier to run and walk on parkrun days, on the Palacerigg parkrun facebook page there are several photos of what the paths were like before the upgrading and now after they have been improved.

Good afternoon Oldfloss, I did go for it this morning at parkrun, after Friday's 4K walk in 48 minutes this Saturday morning at Drumpellier parkrun I ran. 5K in a time of 32:31, next Saturday morning I will be the tailwalker at Palacerigg parkrun.

Sounds like a lovely walk after the upgrade. Good to see you are keeping up your fitness!

It was a lovely walk Jools2020, before the upgrade there was a 40 metre stretch on the course which was really dangerous with stones and bricks sticking over the path which was narrow and downhill, if any runner had tripped at that part it would have been a nasty fall, the path is now wider and all the bricks and other obstacles are gone, much safer now.
