This week the UK was hit by the "Beast from the East", an outbreak of unseasonably cold weather featuring high winds at thick snow. This, sadly, put paid to my plans to visit Folkestone parkrun. I decided to go it local instead. The parkrun cancellations came in thick and fast. Finsbury Park was one of … Continue reading Wanstead Flats parkrun
In the end I went with Plan B (just get round) but really I should have stuck with Plan C (drop out halfway) or even Plan E (fuck it all off and go to the pub). It was a shocker.

Shortly after my first parkrun (last March), I happened to be in Chelmsford for my Other Hobby and took a walk through Central Park. I was struck by what a lovely park is was and was very jealous of the people of Chelmsford having it as their home run. I wondered if it would be … Continue reading Chelmsford Central parkrun

I count down the days to my long run, I wake up brimming with excitement as I get my running kit on. … Continue reading A Run of Misery
Snow in London today (ok, about four flakes, but still) and absolutely freezing cold. I was very glad that I'd got my long run in yesterday and that today dwas a designated "rest day" (by "rest" I mean "12 hour work shift", there is no real rest in my life.) I am very fussy with … Continue reading I Hate Weather
