2nd parkrun this time in glorious 4C sunshine.

Well completely shocked myself after running 36:55 last week I just ran it in 35:14 and actually enjoyed it ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰

What did I do differently I asked myself??

Well I usually run on an empty stomach as I run early, today I had a bowl of porridge 2hrs before and a strong coffee 1hr before. Could be coincidence but I felt so much better even managed a little sprint to the finish line. ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿพ.

Enjoy this wonderful running weather people โ˜€๏ธโ˜€๏ธ

Congratulations on the PB. If youโ€™re running late enough in the morning then I think breakfast makes you more comfortable at that start line.

Iโ€™ve only run 5K twice so letโ€™s see if the improvements continue. Think itโ€™ll be staying similar for the next few. Have you done parkrun, itโ€™s great having so many people around you. ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ˜Š
