Impromptu Hove Prom for me, given licence by coach to go for it. 23.02 unofficial. If that comes back as official then I will have beaten last year's SB with my first parkrun of the year. By a few seconds (but I should know that they all count 
)
)
23.02 official. Table update please [MENTION=15605]knocky1[/MENTION] .
Well done. I'll update after the match.
25:43 for me a Preston Park PB for me today. My least favourite course. When returning in 3 weeks for a full out effort I will make sure I'm up the front at the start to avoid being boxed in round the bollards..

When you return in 3 weeks for your 'full out' blast, you might be chasing my 76.28% AG set today at Worthing. I don't think you'll be chasing my time though: 21:47. An SB for me so would be very grateful if you would update the table please. Cheers!
The new AG leader pushing [MENTION=25508]soistes[/MENTION] of the top of the podium. Well done. Think that is beyond me in 3 weeks as mileage is my priority but I'll give it a little taper and see what happens.
Well, it was nice while it lasted. Good running [MENTION=33116]Garry Nelson's teacher[/MENTION]. I won't be competitive on Parkruns again at least until marathon season is over - could only manage a lethargic 23:10 at Preston Park today, slightly hindered by last night's Burns Night imbibing. Good to see [MENTION=15605]knocky1[/MENTION] on his PP debut.

A temporary SB for me at Eastbourne, 21:57. Getting back into it now and hope to keep chipping away at that to get back into the 20 somethings. It was Eastbourne’s 7th birthday and it was back to regular 350ish runners today after the 500 plus a fortnite ago.

First Park Run for a while, 24:09. I’d like to blame the inch of snow but 5 months of sitting on the couch is the reason I’m well of my pace. Was nice to be back. I ran with a visiting Albion acquaintance who got a PB....in the snow! Crazy.
Mr V? I saw his Facebook post of the course. The only PB that looked possible there would have been a Nordic skiing one
Disappointed to miss out on Park Run this morning but I've been feeling shite all week with man flu so a run at 5k race pace may not have been the best idea.
I should now have a period of being available for Park Runs so I'll choose the venue next week based on the wind speed and direction!
To make up for today's disappointment I've booked the Hastings Half Marathon and the Maverick 23k off road race Saturday 29th June.
My thoughts being the Maverick will be ideal prep for another crack 13 Hardway in August.

First parkrun of the year for me and cane in at my predicted 23 something (23:12 official time). Busy at the start line, gave it some beans on the first lap, was hanging on by the end!
Something to build on as the holiday weight shifting continues.
I might pop over to see the guys at the start of Darkstar marathon as part of my early morning run - bloody lunatics!

Mr V it was. A nice guy and bang up for running regardless of the Friday night beers, snow and sub-zero conditions. Just got back from having a beer with him and the other folk who are over. Just got back from having a beer with him and the other folk who are over.

I went out with a mate and we took turns to lead for a mle. 6-7 straight in to that wind he pulls out an 8.05 the cheeky sod.
I'm impressed with the speed you started and finished Parkrun yesterday. Good going. I'll get onto the table now.
That wind today was a challenge coming back from Rottingdean today. Imagine that on marathon day.
Cheers mate.
Starting parkrun was a nightmare yesterday. I haven't worked out where to start from yet. Yesterday the 24 minute pacer was on the second row at the front right on the Topless Wonder's shoulder. Then he kind of waited for a group. I went from standstill to getting around him almost immediately and was doing 6,40 pace. Only I read it as 8.40 on the watch so pushed harder. It was when I couldn't breathe and was nearly throwing up I realised it was a 6 and not an 8 and changed down a gear

Can anyone please explain what the difference is between elapsed time and moving time?
I had a 20 second faster moving time this morning.
I didn't stop physically and didn't stop the watch until I finished.
Is this normal? Should I count my moving time as the real time?
