Day 85 - parkrun, Leeds

Back to Hyde Park today for parkrun. This was my 94th parkrun and 36th this year. Conditions were mixed underfoot, puddles, wet leaves, ice, but its a still, calm day and though cold, ideal fr rrunning.

Carrying a cold just now (probably had it for the Brecon race, which could explain the odd sensation I had in my chest in the later stages of the race), so decided to take it steady, maybe target 20 minutes. I started well back, so progress was slow through 'taffic', but once I got clear air I started to pick off runners ahead and ended up with a very pleasing 19:13 and 8th place.

So, another 3 miles to add to the tally which now stands at 458 miles and there are 280 days to run.
