Bad week at the Parkrun
Did the Cardiff Parkrun last week. I looked at the course and it was flat so was hoping for a PB. The sheer number of people doing the run was amazing. Made it difficult to get going at a steady pace at the start. When I finally managed to get some clear space, I started to run at a PB pace. And then blew up!. Considering that the course was flat, I was amazed at how much I suffered. I spent the last part of course in survival mode. In the end, my time was about the same as my very first Parkrun on a hilly course. Maybe the chippie tea the night before wasn’t the best prep!!
