Thanks Mark ! It is a nice parkrun, though you might want to time it for when its been dry, those grass sections are challenging when its damp.. when you get round to it !
Cheers Garth! I was a bit disappointed with the pace, even on the hard ground I wasn't about to hold a good speed with the trail shoes, I'm definitely blaming those!
@MattClarry time of year is likely a factor too, the cold weather. I'm at least a minute off the sort of pace I'm happy with atm. But that's happened before and it soon seems to return when the weather improves.
Great running Matt especially given the conditions and Terrain... Is that a wrap for 2024? You must be happy with 2024 as you've been very consistent and quick throughout? Wishing you the best for 2025...
Cheers Keith! Yeah, that's it for running in '24 for me! I've been reasonably happy overall. And I've been happy with some of the parkrun performances this year, had some nice sub 20s, some way under, but not been able to build on and maintain it, which has been a bit frustrating! Hopefully I'll be able to get there in '25! Happy New Year to you too!
Thank you! Yeah, conditions weren't great for going quick, nor were the trainers! Ay, always trying to get sub 20, had a few good ones under this year, but not recently it sadly!
Happy new Year Matt!
Thank you!
Happy New Year to you too!
Well done, Matt 💪 I just checked my NENDY list, and I have another 92 to do before I get to this one 😅 Might be a while yet!
Thanks Mark !

Well done, that's an excellent time given the surface in places. My times drop off on a poor surface much more than yours appear to do!
Cheers Garth!

Yeah, could be.
Hopefully it won't take long to come back!
