@TimGrose 2 года назад

Brings back a few memories as I went to UEA as well albeit bit before you LOL - 1985 to 1992 when finally had to get a job! I understand there is also now one at Colney Lane where we had a grass track before the all weather one opened. Did this parkrun fairly early in its life in 2010. I think you need to do one of the very slowest/hardest parkruns according to my rankings. Can you beat even 20 mins on the all beach one at Great Yarmouth North Beach. Nobody has yet...

@BenIsRunning 2 года назад

That’s pretty cool! We should do the colney lane one together for a uni alumni reunion! I believe it’s all on grass around the sports fields :) That Great Yarmouth one sounds great 👍

Nice work Ben. What a beautiful looking park too! Nice and flat course. Do you think lapping the other runners may have slowed you down a bit? It looks like they gave you a fair amount of room to get around them but I wonder if that may have cost a few seconds. Either way, enjoyed the video and it looks like your training is coming together nicely.
