Hello, I thought I would try something slightly different today. My post is a video blog entry, taken just after I had finished running the Linwood parkrun, near Paisley. I’m a bit tired, hot and sweaty but you get the picture I’m sure. Another event done and a worthy addition to my tourism experience and ...
Bra! Note to self Too much work travel = depleted energy reserves = sleepy me So I had a late start this morning, rushing once again to get to parkrun on time.
