Early start, but less rushing before work!

Went out early today(7.30), which i haven't done for ages! down the seafront for run/walk with george dog :) our parkrun has moved location( due to IOW festival prep) and to get there, back, changed and ready for work and be there for 10.30am sounded like too much stress! so gentle 4.5k, running on and off(mostly on for 1st half) = less stressed Ali, happy George dog, and plenty of time for breakfast and shower! Hopefully will make it back to parkrun soon though, on no 38 and want my 50 shirt! :)

That looks beautiful. I saw on Twitter that the Parkrun shirts should start being available again within a month so you shouldn't have to wait too long for it once you earn it :)

haha, its last year. Had haircut to go back to Libya. Just back from my first run. Not too bad but right leg a bit tight. Did 2.89 km in the 20 minutes. 60s runs, 90s walks. Felt quite good afterwards tho. First step is the hardest!
