🍏Baby it’s cold out there

[Annieapple]

What angels 😇 the Park Run volunteers are for standing over an hour in the freezing cold to encourage & cheer us on. My PB 40:22 today gets me more than halfway through the Goodbye Gravity Challenge of running 40.8K by Dec 29

Enjoy working towards your goals today everyone. 👋

Congratulations Annieapple on your parkrun pb. If I'm correct that's nearly 2 full minutes faster than last week . 😊😊👏👏👏👏👏

Running warms us up but standing around takes determination to do it

Great time Annie, is that 40 k in December?

[Annieapple in reply to SueAppleRun]

Thanks! Yes, the challenge is from 4-29th December.

You are doing great then

[Debston Graduate10]

You're so right, Annieapple, all the volunteers deserve medals, especially in this winter weather. And well done you on your new pb, fantastic stuff! 🏆

[Annieapple in reply to Debston]

Congratulations on your new Pb. Sounds like an interesting challenge, how close are you to your 40k?

[Annieapple in reply to Grannyhugs]

21.3 ✅...hopefully if I can fit in 5 or 6 more runs I will do it! Going to a wedding in Brussels next week but will take the running shoes & try to sneak off on a quick run 🏃‍♀️

[Grannyhugs Graduate10 in reply to Annieapple]

Ooh running on holiday great, have a lovely wedding. 6 runs in 15 days - hope weather stays good for you

[Annieapple in reply to Grannyhugs]

Me too! 🙄

Congratulations Annieapple on that 40.22 PB at this mornings Parkrun, I did say to you last week that it wouldn't be long on you running a sub 40 minute 5K at parkrun, with that PB today, perhaps your next 5K you will manage a sub 40 minute 5K at parkrun.

[Annieapple in reply to AlMorr]

👍Thanks for that!! Your words were ringing in my head and got me through the final sprint!! ⭐️😀

Congratulations on your PB. Very well done. I totally agree, volunteers are legends. I ran a parkrun this morning. Thankfully it was dry whilst I was running. At the finish line I waited a couple of minutes for Mrs damienair to cross the line. Just then it started snowing. My goodness it was cold. But our nice breakfast out warmed us up again.

I’ll be volunteering in the new year.

[Annieapple in reply to damienair]

Thanks Damienair. Glad you & Mrs D had a nice breakfast! Always good after a run 😃. Yes I feel the urge to volunteer as well. We will have to get the thermals out🤣

[damienair Administrator in reply to Annieapple]

It’s cold volunteering this time of year. I want to do scanning or timer next time. I love being at the finish line.
