SATURDAY – 23 December
8.25am and time to head off to Stanley Park, Blackpool, for my 8th ParkRun. Dry, mild and not quite as windy as was forecast – ParkRunners head towards the Stanley Park Clock Tower. With both calves still supported by compression sleeves, just to be on the safe side, at 9.05am I set off along with 228 other ParkRunners. Another significant step forward in progress with a new Personal Best – 4 minutes 15 seconds knocked off my previous PB!
