Went for my first run for a month today and went along to my home parkrun. Not too cold this morning and the condition of the trail was in pretty good shape as well, just perfect! Took it easy today thinking my fitness my have dropped off a bit, but here I am sitting down writing this post feeling good, let's get out there again I'm thinking! ๐Ÿ˜Ž My time was 28.02 for the 5k, so quite pleased with that seeing as Havant run is a little tough. Have a great weekend all! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

And why was it your first run for a month? Because you've been sunning yourself in warmer climes! No sympathy from me, get out there and make up for lost time you slacker!

Hope you had a lovely holiday, that's a great time for 5K xxx

Sounds like a very solid return Frank! Well done๐Ÿ™‚. Have you been unwell? I haven't run for nearly two weeksโ˜น๏ธ๏ธ! At the moment I have Laryngitis and have been feeling rough all week! Have popped on here from time to time just to get a quick fix of running talk but oh, how I am missing running!

Nice one Frank!๐Ÿ˜Š I've been slacking a tad lately, no Parkruns for me at the moment, although nephew is keeping them at just over 26 mins.. I'm just getting out for a 5k run once in the week, and did a 5mile walk on Thursday..๐Ÿ˜
