Boxing Day parkrun tourism

I must be keen. To the amazement of my in laws me and hubby were out by 8am on Boxing Day morning to run the nearest parkrun to them in Boston. It's a new parkrun (this was run number 10). Really enjoyed it. Lovely scenery along the River Witham. Despite the previous day's excesses taking their toll I still did my best overall parkrun time of 34.49. Dead chuffed with myself and still can't believe the change in me - I would never normally have got up to do something like that.

That's my other local Parkrun as I live halfway between Boston and Lincoln. Up to now I've only done Lincoln around me. Going to do Boston in January. Well done btw. I did Conkers on Boxing Day. Got a new pb!
