2. Early start and eight miles to parkrun. Perfect temperature, no rain, nice route, fab views that we couldn't see last time we ran it on a cold dark and rainy November morning, good conversation and an much welcome added bonus of a bottle of water stashed en route earlier by HMG - what's not to love?!
3. Reunited with my dog at the park (didn't think it was fair to make him run eleven miles - however after the way he pulled me round trying to catch the dog who was getting the opportunity to run at a 'proper' pace with our friend who is faster than me, he's doing the full twelve with me next week!) we were doing OK, when I decided to get rid of my headband and did a strange bending down mid stride maneuver to try and get it on the ground but out of the way of any other runners, Dougal followed and I fell over the top of him straight onto my right knee. Straight back up and carried on repeating 'it' not muscular you'll be fine' for the two miles I had left to run. I was, and I will be but there isn't a lot of skin left!
4. For the fact that I couldn't have done this on a quiet stretch and had to suffer the humiliation of falling right in front of an audience of volunteers, and for every time I had to utter the words "Hi, I'm wondering if you might be able to help. I'm having a problem with an iphone thinking that there are headphones plugged in when there aren't.... where did I buy it? Errr that would have been from a seller on Ebay" the song for my 78th parkrun is for me! Both for premise of stupidity and the line "and they were (both) laughing at me" - know what it is yet?!
