Another Good Week!

Well run last week was my 2nd 10K and managed to knock 1min 56 secs of my time! Delighted with that.

Park Run on Saturday and I did the 1st Timers Briefing. Wasn’t ideal because Thunderstorms were forecast ( never materilised) But I was intrigued to find out whether there was anyone there as a result of the “Our Lives” programme with Dame Kelly Holmes all about Park Runs. Alas no one had! But as I said the weather forecast would not have helped on that score.

Did the run following the Briefing but I have to confess that due to circumstances i.e Night-Shift and things I had to do I had been up for 33 hours and downed a bottle of Red Wine before getting 7 hours sleep prior to the run! It was clear that no PB was on the cards for this run but still managed a very respectable 31.36 mins.

However been struggling since, as I think I must have jarred my neck so have had a stiff neck ever since, my first injury as such since starting C25K in January. I am planning to run tomorrow but not sure whether my neck is going to let me.

Only chance I will have this week until Saturday when it will be Harlow’s 250th Park Run! (there will be cake), so hope I will be fit for that even if I am not tomorrow! Happy Running people!

Very nice times there Chris, and even if PR wasn’t a PB for you this week, the fact that you ran at all after a bottle of red wine and little sleep is very commendable! 👏👏👏

Hope your neck doesn’t impede your running too much. It would be a shame to miss cake next weekend wouldn’t it? 🎂
