Tried a bit of tourism today

My local parkrun wasn't on today because of the Gung Ho obstacle course on Southampton Common so my two running pals and I went over to the newish Whiteley parkrun. It was blazing hot but a nice flat course. On a cool day I could see myself getting a PB but not today. Toooooo hot! Plus I am taking part in a dancing display tonight so didn't want to push myself in case of injury. Nevertheless, it was fun and the atmosphere was very friendly and supportive.

Happy running, take care in the heat! X
