Good morning my lovely people, I haven’t posted since my last parkrun, it’s been a very emotional few weeks for my family and I. I have managed to put in a few runs just to keep me from completely cracking, but I haven’t been in the right frame of mind to share my runs with all you wonderful people

Good morning my lovely people, well the rain stopped but it was a very muddy parkrun with @meakernat @beatrice_stephanie07 and @wuzzymin volunteering so it wasn’t as bad as I thought it might be, off later to see our school @sjspschool singing carols at Newington Green, why not pop along?
