  • I don't miss parkrun without a VERY good reason, so despite running a marathon a day Monday - Friday, I was still planning on parkrunning Saturday morning. My sister was visiting with my niece and nephew, so we all headed over to Armley parkrun. It turned out that it was my sister, Carla's, 50th different parkrun! She also needed an 'A' for her parkrun challenges name badge, which is why she picked to run at Armley parkrun. Luckily the sun was shining and some familiar faces meant I had a great run here. For a short moment I considered attempting a 15 mile run on Sunday to round up to a 150 mile week but luckily I recognised that would be completely arbitrary and that rest and recovery was much more important!
    Huge thanks to the volunteer team at Armley parkrun for a fantastic morning.

    Fantastic video as always Nicola. Amazed you can even walk after five marathons!
    Fond memories of Armley park because I grew up in Wortley so was only a ten minute walk. I love the view across Leeds from the park.
    Keep up the great work!

    Well done Nicola, ensuring your channel is a dentist-free zone by gridding a cookie before your sprint finish. Bonus points for broadcasting you were then going to buy chocolate and sweets (however, it was Easter, so no judgement should be passed)

      A dentist free zone 🤣 in about 2 weeks the root canal will be filled. I'm so happy I get to keep the tooth! As it's my back molar I was convinced they would pull it out! 😳

    Well done on managing to do this after your epic week of marathons - this is another of the Leeds ones that I haven't done. I got a PB at Skipton on Saturday (and my first parkrun sub-26), and next week I'm off to try another localish parkrun, and one that you haven't done yet, Burnley.

    Great to hear you are doing Edinburgh Marathon, super event. I'm doing Polkemett parkrun the day before en route to Inverness - was going to do Holyrood but that was cancelled because of marathon weekend.

    • @NicolaRuns
      @NicolaRuns  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I've never done Edinburgh before! I'm excited! Ahhh yes I imagine they'd be overrun at Holyrood if they went ahead with so many runners descending on the city! 🙃

    • @Runner_Emma
      @Runner_Emma 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Edinburgh is a well organised event. I did the half, Dave did the full,the half started at 8am.....I struggle with parkrun start times, 8 😮😮. Holyrood can wait until next spring. Edinburgh parkrun will likely have bumper numbers, but they've got lots of space to make it work.

      A Cowell is 100 different parkrun locations (named after the first person to do this), so a Cow (being half of Cowell) is 50 different parkruns
