Very true AlMorr. Did you run with your Christmas jumper on at parkrun yesterday 😊

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Buddy34]

That was a very quick reply from you Buddy34, I posted it at 6.39 and within seconds got your reply before 6.40pm.

Yes I did, I ran in my Christmas reindeer jumper and red Santa hat, got a time of 32.38, there were a few other runners with red Santa hats on, most of the marshals also were wearing Santa hats, however, I thought there might be runners in a full Santa Dash red cloak, but I didn't see any.

I hope you enjoyed your visit to the hair dressers yesterday.

I MIGHT be at Drumpelliier parkrun on Saturday wearing the same gear as yesterday, not sure about that, can't run in those Christmas clothes if it's raining ☔.

[Buddy34 Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

Just in from walking the dog. I will be going to parkrun next Saturday then maybe leave it until January. 😊

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Buddy34]

I don't suppose you will be going, I certainly won't, but there is a parkrun at Drumpelliier on Christmas Day at 9.30am, no parkrun at Dunfermline on Christmas day, however, there is a parkrun at Dunfermline on NewYear's Day at 11am but no parkrun on New year's day at Drumpelliier, I won't be at either.

Yes I seen there was a Christmas day parkrun , I won't be going but I will be running on Christmas day 🎄🎄

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Buddy34]

On Christmas Day morning I usually take my neighbours dog Holly a short walk, in the afternoon I will be at Christmas Dinner at my son in laws parents house with my two grandchildren and their dog Poppy, I will be wearing my Santa hat but not that reindeer jumper because its far to warm to wear inside, by the way my son in law s father has seen me running around Broadwood Loch quite a few times when he is walking his dog, they live only a five minute walk away.

What a nice day to look forward to🎄

So true Alan. 👍

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to lexi6]

Not heard from you for a while lexi6, I hope you are keeping well and still running at some parkruns, of course its summer in New Zealand, I hope its not too hot where you are like it is in some parts of Australia where the temperature is over 40C.

[lexi6 Graduate]

I’ve not been so good Alan and had stopped running, but now getting out again 3 times a week. Haven’t done a parkrun yet, but will start again next year. Our weather is not the best I ran 8km in a 43km wind yesterday and very glad I’m not running today its pouring and 16 degrees. Hope all is well with you.

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to lexi6]

So sorry about hearing that you have not been too well recently but glad that you are a bit better and running short runs 3 times a week.

I am well thank you 😀I ran my 13th parkrun yesterday at Dunfermline, the weather has been quite changeable where I live in Scotland, we have had a lot of rain, then frost, two weeks ago I ran a parkrun in - 5C/23F, the coldest temperature I have ever ran in, strangely enough my time was almost a PB at 30.56, my PB is 30.55 when the temperature was+15C, anyway it was a good run despite the cold,

I just hope that you recover fully and can get back to a parkrun soon. 😊 🏃🏾

[lexi6 Graduate]

Thank you so much Alan I’ll definitely get back to parkrun, I’d like to get a PB next time, so just need to get my fitness back. Your parkrun times are fantastic and especially in those temperatures. 👍

Hi lexi sorry you haven't been well, look after yourself.

[lexi6 Graduate in reply to grumpyoldgirl]

Thank you Grumpy, being able to run really lifts the spirits 🙂

[grumpyoldgirl Graduate]

Can't argue with that!
