Personal Worst!

Rosie's new shoes!

You've heard of a "Personal Best"? Well, at the most recent ParkRun she took part in, Rosie managed to record her "Personal Worst" - her slowest time in over 40 events. She realises she isn't getting any younger, but finishing behind a poodle and a kiddy being pushed in a buggy was a bit humbling. ParkRuns are supposed to be a good way of just getting a bit of exercise on a Saturday morning, and interacting with folk, but the competitive edge is bound to creep in as we look at how our "stats" compare with other folk, and challenge ourselves personally to improve our own performance. And hopefully our health and wellbeing. So Rosie has treated herself to a new pair of trail running shoes, which hopefully give a bit more "bounce" to rebound the energy in each stride, as well as improved traction and grip on the concrete surface of the sea front promenade, where our local ParkRun is held. She hadn't heard of this particular brand, "N Normal", before, but first impressions are very good - they fitted very comfortably straight from the box. Yes, you can probably tell she took the photo sitting in the local Costa Coffee emporium, but assures us this was to imbibe a Medium Skinny Latte. No biscuits or other sweetmeats were consumed during this break in training 😂
