Some of you know I have a little friendly rivalry with a friend of mine at our local Parkrun. I always beat him, but a few weeks back I couldn't run and he ended up running a PB 30seconds faster than mine. I tried to get that back but was 1second short and he hasn't let me forget it since, calling One Second Noble at every opportunity.

So today's Parkrun's target was to finally get that second back.

And somehow, despite going to bed early last night fighting manflu with a lemsip, I not only took back that second... But I totally smashed my Parkrun PB by 92seconds with an official time of 22.54

I am ecstatic! Not only for my own personal achievement, but I have some serious bragging rights over my mate. He's got a lot of work to do to catch up which means I can slow down and enjoy the next few parkruns with a gentle jog !

Congratulations on that PB time of 22.54, that time will wind your friend up to do a even better time than you ran today, at least until then you can brag about your run this morning.

Enjoy your forthcoming gentle jogs. 😀🏃🏾
