Retired international minigolfer, likes the odd beer, cheese, exploring, cheese, lists, cheese, old football shirts and cheese.
And cheese.
And just started parkruns with a cheese chaser.

This is what parkrun has done for me. I never expected to have got so much support from friends and family.
I'll make the start as often as I can for people like Duncan, Sean, Norbert, Tim and my dad's cousin Trevor that we've lost since July.
Thanks to the Bluesky people too.

Just over a minute slower than my best, plodded from around just over 2km.
The biggest achievement is when you didn't feel your best but still did it anyway.
Just another parkrun Saturday.

Managed my 4th straight sub 32:30 parkrun, this time at Ferry Meadows in Peterborough. It's busy there so takes about 4-5 minutes to get into a rhythm. Course is beautiful and very well organised. Hard to judge where the finish is so may have saved a little bit for the end too early.

Little crowded at the start but levels out after 2-3 minutes. Great to meet up with someone I haven't seen for about 9 years. Got a PB by just 2 seconds. Good mornings work all round.

Second best time so far, just 33 seconds off Mildenhall last week, but 2:14 faster than Huntingdon PB.
This bridge, it's steeper than it looks to my knees.
Looking forward to the next one. This makes me happy.

A sad sight in farming as all the mummy and daddy Weetabix are rounded up while we kidnap their young to be later eaten.

Parkrun 9.
Mildenhall Hub.
Shirt SPAL. Mess wore Sudbury.
Time 31:40. A new PB by 1:37.
Beginning of August, I was just under 40 minutes. I don't know how this is happening but it is. Great to catch up with @messageismyname.bsky.social, hopefully not too long until the next time.

Thankful that Bug Hunter Waters parkrun was on. Wind picked up a lot of the second lap so not too bad at all. Compression knee bandages were the real winner.

That was a great weekend meeting up with friends back in Sussex and spending time with dad, still looking sprightly for 81. Maybe the best one since mum died
Restful afternoon, back to work tomorrow and get myself ready for the next parkrun on Saturday (hopefully Huntingdon is the weather behaves).

The parkrun community is like no other. In two months, I've gone from mourning a couple of friends (and then a third) in six weeks to feeling good about myself again.
My mum died seven years ago today, the parkrun made today worthwhile and life worth living.

Got another parkrun done in Lancing while visiting dad. 36:23 today, 16 seconds off PB. Pleased with that as I've been off work for two days with a urine infection and migraine. Found myself looking at better running techniques. Try again next week.
