Double Parkrun, 5k & 10k, 24&25/04/10

The first day was a beautiful sunny morning and the turn out was good considering people were away for various races. I wasn't feeling too well but I thought its only 5km and I'll give it a go. During the race I started off fast but faded as I really felt flat and tired from a long hard week. It was good to see other Porties turn up to. When I checked my results I did another PB which in all honesty was unexpected as I felt awful.

The second day was hell on Cramond!! It was raining like anything, Monika came along and braved the conditions to support me. There was few other guys from our club also which was good. The race itself went ok for myself, but I felt like a wet fish!! I got a PB and was very happy with it.

A special mention has to go to Shelagh who gave us a lift back and John Forker. They both took pity on us, well not me but Monika and wee Greg.
