Park Run (#5th place)

3 generations of Agnews made our way down to Norman Park for the Bromley Park Run this morning.
 
Jack #10 (pb 23.17) took the honours in the match up with my Dad #71 (25.ish). Lukie #8 ran 28ish and me 18.15. I was feeling flat as a pancake this morning feeling the effects of a tough week at work. In any case, I took the first km easy and then picked off the stragglers to finish 5th. Roger ran well in 17.11 despite the strong wind and jogged back home with him and Rory. 
A nice morning and enjoyed the chats after with the usual crew (Dad, Jacqueline and boys all joining in).
 
Our Jack ran well given he does no training and relies on the copious amount of football training he does with his various teams.  I keep telling him that the added endurance will really help with his football come the start of the season in September.
Hardly moved from the couch since as have been glued to the TdeF.  Epic stage today and widely regarded as the most exciting penultimate stage ever. Incredible. Quintana really took it to Froome who owes Richie Porte a pint or two.

HR got to 174. Getting better all the time.

  1. Nice work at ParkRun Sammy Aggers, 18.15. Looks like we are running very similar times again at the moment as i did 18.20 (albeit on the Worlds toughest Parkrun at St Peters :) ) Will be following your progress and hope to still be able to match your times come April next year.
    Still no mention of the Mighty Potters i note?

    Thomas...... Doubting Thomas.
    cheers
