First Parkrun in 2 months. I didn’t run much in the heat in France but dedicated myself to beer and cold rosé wine. Plus three days of driving and unhealthy eating on the way back.

Anyway, I got round (first objective) without walking (second objective). 90 seconds slower than my PB, but I’m determined to get back in the saddle and lose the 2 French kilos I put on. (BTW French kilos are heavier and easier to put on than good old British kilos)

Oh, curse those French kilos, how dare they follow you home! 😂 Although, secretly miffed that they only slowed you down by 90 seconds, that's not fair! Wouldn't say so out loud of course it would only make me look jealous🤣🤣
