Hope the Lung Run went well . Was it as hot in Brum as in Stratford? Bloody scorching it was - ended up with a burnt face! But managed 1.39.51 for the half (that was from the start line, official time was 1.40.15). Had a great day apart from the last couple of miles - they were hard!
So, come on, how did it go in Sutton Park for the race?
Sounds like you had a good day Prue. Nice weather, a PB and a decent pub sesion. Can't be bad.
Mmmm, now.....think I best tell Des about these Sunday runs we have planned :-)
I got a PB too, after shouting at Caz last year when she got a PB at the lung run "How can you get a PB at the Lung Run?"
Shall hope to do better on a flattie soon.
So, are you meeting at the first car park s you turn into Monmouth Road (or is it Chester Road) or meeting at the Boldmere Gate entrance?
So I may well have some female company after all !!
Popsy - Town Gate is on the east side of the park and is the entrance nearest Sutton Coldfield town centre. If you're driving, as you go round the one way system, Town Gate is almost opposite the entrance to Gracechurch Shopping Centre car park. Hope that helps! Glad you're coming on Sunday, 7 of us now.
Juicer - another one getting a PB! Sounds like the Lung Run is a good one to do.
Juicer - what was the course? I did the 7 Pools Run (10K) at Sutton in March and that was good. But then again, you can't go too far in the park on the flat!

Tell you what, I'll plan a 13 mile run which consists of 2 loops (different each time though) a 7 miler and a 6 and another route which will be an 8 and a 4 and we'll see what we all fancy on the day. How does that sound?? Also, are there any preferences for concrete or trails/mud?
As for the pub aa, it could be arranged :-)
Running Caz - that sounds good. Go for it.
I run in the park a lot as well and there are loads of routes.
The 7 Pools 10K course is almost all offroad - not entirely flat though!
Not entirely flat = much more fun!!
Have never ran more than 7 before so I'll go for as long as I can before I collaspe.
As anthony a said earlier, the BBC weather has Sunday as 20C and sunny. Weather.co.uk has 20C and light rain. Who knows?
Anthony a - no problem. The good thing about Running Caz sorting out loops is exactly that. People can drop out at the end of a loop.....and go get the beers in, did I hear someone say?
please place your orders
