good Park run. 3.1 mi 00:22 06:56 pace

Ran my first park run today and had a great time, went out a bit quick and was chicked with 200 metres to go as a result. Really nice group of guys.

    Got to work on my kick! Trouble is I'm much better at running hard for all of it and leaving nothing for the last 200 metres!

    Great pace Jim! That is an awesome time. I really wish we had a Park run here. Does getting "Chicked" mean you've been passed by a girl? Just wondering.

    I'll run it different next time maybe, and now I have a lovely pace maker with long red hair.. I'll see if I can take her down in 2 weeks time. :)

    That is the same as my best time, although now, I would struggle to get anywhere near that.

    Welcome to parkrun ... I've done all 42 at Solihull (brueton) but I think I'm going to try a few other events - would be interested to know how you found the course (which course did you do?)
