Slightly less frenetic today, due to the younger age group, although I did have to issue a warning that if they forced me to run the length of the field again, I'd chop their legs off.

This does serve to illustrate the stop/start nature of the game given that for that age, the playing time is two halves of 25 minutes, yet my total moving time during the game was a shade over 27.

I love your scribbles, you must be a fellow Scot by the maps, AlMorr thought there was just him, Buddy34 and myself north of the border. Now we are 4.

I'm actually originally from up near your neck of the woods, but been living in the heathen lowlands since late 1988

Huh you ran away from me, we moved here in 1987 - for 3 years! 32 years later now thinking about moving back to tayside closer to all our family.

We all find new places to settle, being happy in your chosen place is the main thing. Happy scribbles

If you're interested Grannyhugs there's a guy on YouTube has ran all the Scottish parkruns

Thanks, can’t imagine the dedication it must take to go round them all. While I’m monitoring my HR park runs are totally out for me. I did register then started the 10k plan and realised I had to slow down. I’m currently trying to avoid IC so no running at all for a bit. I think because I’m going slower I’m out for longer and a long standing issue has been aggravated. Practicing patience- badly.

Thank you, timing return is the problem. I think I do some strapping to support on the first few runs.

Not just the fact that he has ran all the Scottish Parkruns, he ran them all with his arm stretched out videoing all of them, his average time is around 22 minutes.

That would never ever happen for me. Just tested out knee on 4k run, lots of abs work to keep knees tight. Just short of 30 min so he must be lovely and fit. I'm playing the growing old gracefully card, dont like to raise a sweat, especially not when it's only 2deg outside. Happy running

Stop start can be tough too... I’d be tempted to not see any infringements 🤣. Maybe that’s why I’d never make a good referee!
