January's not the busiest month for racing, and February takes a little time to get started as well, so there's not a lot to report this week.
With Norman Park receiving a fresh deluge of the wet stuff overnight, it was always going to be a doubtful starter, but give the organisers their dues, they did their very best to try to stage the event, but were beaten in the end by the sheer mass of surface water even with a last minute revision to the usual course, in an attempt to avoid a further cancellation.
Those who were Norman Park bound switched at the last moment to Orpington parkrun's benefit where 9 PWR's appeared and Jenny finished first lady. A good performance was noted also at Shorne parkrun with Rob Laing second finisher and Sonja Laing close to winning the ladies' event:-

At this time of year, the marathoners and half marathoners in training are out with the Sunday Willet Rec runners building up the mileage steadily for the T. Wells, Paddock Wood and Hastings HM's, and of course the big ones at Brighton and London. It's tough but someone has got to do it, and with all this endeavour, we can expect to see some fab times come March and April.
Finally, the other organised event over the weekend involving PWR's was the Kent Fitness League down at Canterbury. Evidently, many PWR's elected to keep their feet on firmer ground on Sunday morning, but those who did attend found conditions similar to those of Norman Park with a further 3k's thrown in for good measure. Finishing positions were:-
