Well I did not stand a chance , her mother said a loud good morning as they passed me, and dissappeared into the distance. Just kept them in sight but never got passed them once. Thought it would be more of a contest............better luck next time. However we both got another PB each so not to upset.

Also looking back on my posted I said my goal was to do it in 41.10 before my 65th birthday , well I did it in 41.02 and I will be 65 on Friday so yippèeeeeeeeeee.

Next goal ? Any ideas

Speedy little kid. Sub-40 as the next goal? A minute off would be a sizeable PB that would be fun to work towards.

I think sub-41 is enough of a challenge :)

Since it was you Bazza1234 that encouraged me to start parkrunning last October I will try my best for you at my 24th parkrun next weekend. I am also trying to catch up to my son on parkruns done. He is on 41 but has been in Australia for 3 weeks at a wedding so I have caught up a bit in his absence.
