Inspecting the troops at Cheadle Hulme! |
More like a cross country this week. Three laps of Bruntwood Park in Cheadle Hulme on clearly what is normally a very muddy course. With the recent fine weather most of this has dried out leaving areas of chunky ruts. Can see now why runner numbers here are much lower than at other local parkruns. However we thought it was great and the bacon roll and cups of tea afterwards in the cafe in the park were excellent - a very friendly parkrun which we highly recommend this is minutes off the M56 so it's easy to get to (if you take the right turnings.) I was going reasonable well in 9th but, not being familiar with the course, I lost a bit of time at the end and finished 12th. Vicky and Skip had a great run - another sub-32 time!

Hurry - that's chapel's going to be full! |
And the weather was just as good in Windsor. The nearest parkrun to Windsor is at Upton Court and we shall have to do this one soon. Why is this? Because I need a 'U' - I've run park runs beginning with almost every letter of the alphabet apart from J, U, X and Z. We should get Z later this year in Australia, J sounds like it needs a trip to Jersey and there's no X (yet!) Upton Park does not seem to be a very popular run - that can't be because it's in Slough?
