Running Badly and Getting Lucky

04 Jan 2020 at 20:33 // under Personal Running

So today was my first parkrun in almost exactly three months. What happens when I don't run for three months? I managed a personal worst. My time was 22 seconds slower than my very first parkrun which was after nearly 10 years of no racing.

Never mind, I can't change that. All I can do is attempt to improve by getting back out there. In better news, I got a nice email informing me that I got a new year gift from NS&I in the form of a premium bond prize¹. I know that I would be better keeping that money in a high interest savings account, but it is like playing the lottery, except you can get your money back.
