Waveydavey Aug 2009 11:16pm, 8 Aug 2009 234 posts	Quote Pin Waveydavey I've got no excuses for not doing this one. It will be interesting to see how fast it is though. It's flat, but essentially all off road.
Too Much Water Aug 2009 11:34pm, 8 Aug 2009 1,554 posts	Quote Pin Too Much Water Anj - you're not alone - I will make the first one but then miss the next 3. Still I hope to go every week as it's only 10 minutes jog away. When it's dry I think it will be fairly quick, think it might be a tad damp in places if we have a wet winter.

Rach E Aug 2009 10:06am, 9 Aug 2009 4,183 posts	Quote Pin Rach E The beauty of the parkrun is that you can measure your progress week by week, regardless of the nature of the course. Then, when the opportunity arises to run another flat and fast 5km, you'll get a real indication of your true 5k time. We'll try and make it at some point, but a bit too involved in Basingstoke now to make it regularly...
