Jo’s Jogging Journal 22-23 February

28/2/2014

 
A fair amount of ‘jogging’ activity to report this week.

With Bromley parkrun still closed (fingers crossed for a return on the 8th March) Dulwich and Orpington seem to be the parkrun of choice for the majority of us. Dulwich is a fast flat 3 lap course and this week promised PB’s to Martin Cunningham, Viral Tanna and Jeremy Benson. Simon Dahdi visited for the first time but managed to knock 40 seconds off his previous 5k PB and I expect he will soon duck under the 18 minute mark- all those track sessions are paying off, well done Simon.

For the mud lovers, Johnny Gill managed a sub 20 minute PB at Orpington and Jenny Leng a new PB at Hilly Fields.

The rest of us attended a variety of other parkruns, some sticking with old favourites and some travelling further afield for a parkrun tourism fix.

As we move into spring, the start of the half marathon season is slowly appearing, and there were three races attended this weekend by PWRs. Robyn Stubbs and Paula Dimond ran the inaugural Hampton Court Half Marathon which sadly fell short of the 13.1 distance due to a marshalling error early on. This was Robyn’s first half in her training for the London Marathon so well done to Robyn. Keep up the training!

Martin Cunningham ran at the Headcorn Half marathon, this is a small new event run by a company called ‘Running and Riding’ who primarily organise cycling sportives and duathlons. It starts in the small village of Headcorn heading out into the countryside and back. Martin placed first in his age category and 24th overall- let us know what you thought of this new race, Martin.

Murat Askin travelled to Portsmouth to take on the Coastal Half Marathon. This sounds like a lovely course along the seafront, including beach and parkland. Again, it would be great to hear what you thought of this race.

Many other PWR’s were also seen out on Sunday morning with the marathon training groups in full force, others training for half marathons and a group who got together at High Elms to run the proposed new Orpington 10k course.  And of course, thanks to Karen who always manages to be there with a cup of tea and a piece of cake on a Sunday, just when you need it!

Happy running!
