Morning Run: Christmas parkrun

I just finished a 5.006km running that lasted about 0hh:26mm:44ss !

I have not done parkrun on Christmas day before, but Bedford has an event. It was cold and raining a little when my daughter and I arrived, but the reason did not last. Lots of people turned up, many in fancy dress. The run director was in an inflatable unicorn costume.

The course is two and a half laps of Bedford Park. It is on paths, but there were lots of mushy leaves around. They now run in the opposite direction to the last time I did it. That means a long, gentle climb up to the cafe that you have to do three times. That felt hard work.

I managed a bit of a sprint at the end and was happy with my time. My daughter was a few minutes behind me. There were nearly 400 runners.

Since then I've had a lovely Christmas with the family. I hope others had a great day too.

Merry Christmas!
