That is interesting and also makes summer competing more fun! When is your next meeting?

The birthday did help 😊 and today I have managed to run a parkrun in 22.30 giving me 80.43 in a very warm and windy parkrun along Felixstowe seafront. A 43 second improvement from the last time I ran it in better conditions in March.

That's just great, forever. Fab running! Bet you're glad you ditched the not quite 10k earlier in the week!

Thank you all.

I am Sharkie. I don't think I would have had the mental fortitude for two hard runs in warm weather so close together. I struggled today as it was with the wind aswell as the heat.

The tricky conditions make your 80 plus even sweeter! Now you need a race with ideal conditions - they must exist.

(My second best event - the 100m - has been into a head wind every time this year! Does my scores no good whatsoever!)

That must be so very frustrating Sharkie but the odds must be turning in your favour now for a good wind direction 😀

I got 78.7% WAVA at parkrun yesterday. I wonder if there's a chance of 80% one day. Never considered it before! :-) G

Never say never HappyG(rrr) ... but don't leave it too late cos it just gets harder! I'd come to take them for granted for my sprints and now, well, I DON'T!

(High jump is looking ok though at 80.52)
