This morning I am running in the Wollaton
Park 10k. I have done this several
times before but not for a year or two and I don’t really like running around
my local park much but this is a valuable training opportunity.
The race seems to get more popular each year and has pulled
quite a crowd. The course is two laps of a 5k route which is mainly off road.
Conditions are quite firm but still I wear trail shoes, my own this time not
L’s.
As I recall this race has always been rather annoyingly marked
in miles and not kilometres but this year they don’t even bother with that and
only put out the ‘one mile’ marker. Still I have a reasonable run albeit in a
really average time. Three years ago I was four minutes quicker...
I am handed my mug at the finish line to add to our collection
at home. Oh for them to spend the extra 20p and slip a creme egg in to it. They
don’t but L does. Bless her. The dogs and L have done another excellent
supporting job.
