Yippee I managed to knock over a minute off my previous best time this morning, did it in 33.24, I'm not breaking any speed records but it sure feels good to be improving on my own time. Must be my new go faster hat that I was wearing! :)

Yep, I'm sure it was the hat! Nothing like a new hat to make a woman run like the wind....lol.

Congratulations on the PB....that's a great time, I think.

Keep up the good work and enjoy!

Your time is great (3+ mins faster than mine). My next goal is to break 35 mins but don't think that will be next week! So can i borrow your go faster hat for next week's park run, it may help me get a PB too?
