Glasgow Park Run event #128.
Going on holiday for a week and to keep the race fitness going I went along to the Glasgow park run this morning where conditions were almost perfect although a little muggy.
I kept my position through most of the race apart from swopping places with Brian Burnett and Carlos Gonzalez throughout. They both moved away from me with 1K to go but I retreived 5 places in the last 500 metres and felt really strong on the run in pipping 2 lads just before the finish line. My race report from Parkrun below. Great way to start the weekendCongratulations on completing your 6th parkrun and your 6th at Glasgow today. You finished in 16th place and were the 16th gent out of a field of 237 parkrunners and you came 2nd in your age category VM50-54.
Congratulations on setting a new Personal Best by 00:09 seconds at Glasgow parkrun! Your best time this year remains 00:19:33.
You achieved an age-graded score of 76.64%. For an explanation of age-grading, please see the WAVA age grading overview.
You have earned 85 points for this run, giving a total of 451 points in this year's Glasgow points competition.
