I really feel I am jinxed with park run in general and Whitley Bay in particular, in last 3 weeks I have had to pull out with a dodgy stomach, being calledinto work and this morning woke with sore throat, blocked nose etc.

However I feel a bit better now so it might just be one if those things that fades away as the day goes on.

Really need to get out for a long run tomorrow as I have the Northumberland 10 miler in 3 weeks and haven't gone longer than 10k since the GNR.

Well done to everyone who did park run this morning or is planning on getting out over the weekend.

Run happy, run safe.

Yeah that could be it. My old man works at various hospitals and brings all sorts home, none of which affect him in the slightest 😷🤧🤮. He seems immune from everything 🤷‍♀️

What a shame Chris, I hope that it all goes to plan next time. I guess that runs along the coastline too? Hope you are feeling better soon
