Briefing

Well, that was interesting. 

I opted for Loch Leven Parkrun this morning after seeing (on Facebook) the course had passed inspection. Kirkcaldy was cancelled. Dunfermline, Perth and Lochore Meadows too. 

The result was 321 runners from all over the area instead of the usual 60-70. There was traffic congestion on the main road as folks tried to get into the car park. The car park was overflowing. I hate to think what the toilets were like. 

The volunteer team did an amazing job. 

The course had lots of frozen puddles on it and was "crunchy" everywhere, but it was fun. It was cold (1º) but dry and there was no wind. Ideal for this time of year. 

My mind and body responded and I ran well. That aside, 5 Parkruns in 15 days means I must be doing something right. 

The Blip is the run director briefing the attentive hordes. Even the black spaniel (right of shot) sat down on cue.
