I ventured to Newcastle town moor parkrun, decent field of nearly 500 and someone did a short 15 
Fairly steady for me as Iām nervous about my back/leg, a slightly faster last K got me a long 22, but not enough for a top 100!
Not sure about the leg, thought I felt an odd twinge but decent afterwards, very nervous about it though 
Edit: 26/37 in the north east now

Yeah, Iāve done some 2 hour or longer races and runs recently on the hills and itās been fine but something at the parkrun on Wednesday or the cycling has aggravated it.
Frustrating, hope yours improves soon as well!

Having walked it in 45:01 last week (45 pacer was miles ahead) after a minor op on the Tuesday, it was more of an effort today. Managed to just dip under 22 and donāt think I had much more in me. Barely run since twisting my ankle and then starting a new job at the beginning of November.
Looks like I did my 41st parkrun this year, slightly down on the previous 2 years.

Iām up. And waiting. Itās been heavily raining since 2pm yesterday, so the course will be flooded and might be cancelled. 
EDIT: cancelled. Itās properly flooded 
(This is the footpath, which is now the river, too, about 1m rise here!)

There arenāt any around here NYD. Burnham, Street and Shepton not happening. Not even sure where the nearest NYD one would be? Bristol or Trowbridge probably.

Both local ones were on. Went to the one on my door step. Didnāt look too many runners and absolutely no supporters out. Strong winds and a fair bit of drizzle. Puddles were very small though.
Gave it all I had and was just outside 21. Still, quickest one of the year so canāt grumble. Sorry.
The two quickest runners turned up in trousers, shirt and bow ties (not formal shoes though ), still beat everyone by a distance.

Quite a lot tougher in Yorkshire and we were told to run through the puddles instead of running on the grass by the side I ignored that due to my fell running pedigree 
Anyway, headed to Woodhouse Moor in Leeds as Iām heading south today. Think itās the fourth oldest parkrun, maybe fifth 
Anyway, tempo kind of effort and should have finished in around 21:20 but cocked up the finish where I thought we went straight on to the finishing shoot, turns out that was the exit of the finish line 
So I backtracked, lost about 4-5 places and possibly 40 seconds think I finished just under 22.
Hoping to do Upton Court on Saturday to complete my alphabet

385 at Bognor Regis this morning - just a few more that we had on Christmas Day. A few other local events had been cancelled. Our park is pretty sheltered from the wind and although gusty it wasnāt anywhere near as bad as I thought it would be.
Ran home along the seafront with the wind behind us - you were almost blown off your feet in some of the gusts - which I can see why the local seafront events were cancelled - could be pretty dangerous with a pushchair! MrsF didnāt have to pedal at all - just let the wind push her along.
Not a parkrun photo but hereās the angry sea from on the way home from parkrun. Still a couple of hours until high tide so itāll be really rough by midday.
