Snapstinget Boo is my witness (as is Antbliss, and indeed Gobi) that I said I was going to do 25 minutes. And that is exactly what I did. I started with Antbliss but we were doing about 4.40 per k as we went round the first bend and headed up the hill, and I told Antbliss that I could tell I wasn't going to do better than 25 minutes so he should leave me. He muttered about picking up his daughter for a lap and as we passed Mrs Antbliss on the camera I sent him on his way :-) I had a funny kind of run. I was never stressed but I simply could not push my pace up. It's this business of missing 5th gear. However, at no time did I feel like stopping. I was beaten by a lady who overtook me about 400 yards from the line and she beat me by 9 seconds: I tried to give her a bit of a challenge but to no avail. Se had been aiming to pick me off for some time and she succeeded. However I didn't swear at her! My next BHTT is on 13 Dec. Unaffiliated 23:19 23:30 25:00 25:00 60.36
The great dollop Started off with Snapstinget and let the course come to us. First main hill was ok so went a tad faster, then last hill went a bit more into the finish for the last 1k. even paced for me - usually go off far too fast so thanks Snaps ! Just working through the race photos Mrs AntBliss took, will be on the park run website soon... Unaffiliated 22:11 22:51 23:37 56.47

Really friendly, medium sized parkrun. One small lap and two complete laps of Hove Park. All on paved surfaces, half uphill, half downhill each lap. Downhill finish!
