Today marks one year of #parkrun for me. I've managed to do the 5k 32 times and have volunteered 13 times, usually as parkwalker or as the barcode scanner. It's a great community and I'm really glad I have one nearby.

So I did it. Fantastic sunshine. Horizon to horizon rainbow but not in the direction I was going so no rain. River roaring but not on the riverbank paths. More than happy I did that

Monday is Runday !
4k this afternoon, I'm likely to be 50k short of 400 k for the year. (There's a target for 2026).
Apologies, no photo - too grey and gloomy.

OK, I managed to do it. After 40 days of travelling, illness and recovery I got out there and did a reasonable run. Hampered by wind and the Wye flooding from the recent storm, it was actually a beautifully sunny and warm day.

I was already done wit the shrivelled husk that still calls itself the #labour Manifesto and will be voting #green in future — a party that actually stands for something. But if I'd not yet given up on them, yesterday's vile anti-refugee rhetoric would have put the lid on it.

Dragged another one out. It was so warm I could not say no, though it has been three weeks since my last run so I have been saying no a lot.

Fediverse check: parking for a week near Hereford station

Going on holiday for eight days, need to park, reasonably close to the train station. Since the council changed from Ringo app to Justpark it doesn't seem to be possible to pay for a multi day stay.

Well I managed to run a whole half marathon this morning!

Longest training run was only 10km so I wasn't sure I would make the distance.

I've never done one before, so 2 hrs 12 mins is my new PB!

Well, it got me out. Having signed up a little while ago, I had to do it. Last time I ran it was 2017, so a little bit slower.

Ran 10.03 kms (5:38min/km) at 9:02am this morning. https://en-gb.smashrun.com/john.cooper/run/43173782/wpw9qha4#map

Have found it difficult to get going this week, so reverting to little and often.

Well, I've done the little part, now to fulfil the other

Another week, another run. Perhaps I should run more often but not as far, it takes me a week to get it together for the next

My #garmin watch started charging erratically so I sent it off under warranty. Backup watch, previous model, has produced a terrible GPS track. Seems it doesn't want to sync to #smashrun either, so sharing the Garmin activity.

I've avoided it for two weeks, but today the weather broke and I ran. In the rain, lovely and cool

So, are we supposed to self report every tiny thought of Palestine Action to the police? http://gov.uk/ACT

OK it's ten days since I ran, that was in Whitby on a school reunion weekend. Running on the cliffs between the abbey and decommissioned lighthouse and foghorn station with a mate

Today was cooler than it has been and was very refreshing

My attempt at a Cooper Test in a river valley with not much flat. On a hot day, but after the peak, starting out at 22°C
Warmed up walking down the hill: 30m down in 300m
Ran 6+6 mins out and back as flat as possible.
Using a Garmin workout: warm up/run/run/cool down.
Achieved 2320m in the time […]
