There are some very generous people out there. Even though Christmas Day was on a Friday (and that meant finding volunteers for the usual Saturday parkrun the very next day), some parkruns chose to hold another run on the day itself. We went to one such, Preston Park parkrun in Brighton. There were nearly 300 runners there, most wearing various versions of Christmas outfits and of course all in a very good mood. I ran with Dave while Jane let Ben jump in the puddles. We ambled round and then realised we were behind the 29 minute pacer, so we made an effort to get ahead of him. This we did but it was hard work at the end. Hurrah my foot felt OK. I think it was a case of bunion flare-up. Yuck! Then home to a lovely Christmas meal at the Bloxams. Also, one or two presents for Ben and Jessica.....
Here are J and M runners out in force for the Downs Breakfast Run on the 27th.
There was walking, running, and a mixture of both in yet more challenging gales. Good fun, though!
