cehstone Started too slowly I think, from the bottom turn slowly kept catching up with the guy from the North West overtaking him as you leave the road for the right turn onto the track then somebody (Jon Pincutt) kept coming up to me and we ran together for a long time, both taking the lead. Extra effort was needed and I'm doing everything I can to breathe deeply. I can see two people up ahead who we are catching, I see the young male make a visible to run faster. I must have been distracted coming up to bottom turn for the 2nd time because suddenly JP is two three metres ahead. Rachael Needham is coming up to my shoulder as we run towards the split paths, she's running with a water bottle. There's someone ahead as we start the sprinting area, and I'm up on my toes and I see the chance of beating him. Pull to the right where the surface is firmer and sprint past him at the last second. Only a second behind JP who says its a PB. Without the competition neither of us would have pushed it this hard, probably. Theere were six of us all within a five second period. A good run if you take into account the mud and puddles. Redhill Road Runners, Rebel Runners Nottingham 21:57 22:31 23:16 69.42

About this parkrun

Hard packed trail plus a bit of road, can get very muddy - 1 small and then 1 big lap - minor undulations - course goes round a large lake. Always starts 5-10 minutes late. Daleside cafe is a fair way from the finish but well worth the trip

2 laps of 1 lake and 1 of another. Nice venue. Free parkrun. Mix of tarmac and grass etc. could be fast if not injured like I was
