Running warm up/down 7:45 [3] 1.0 mi (7:45 / mi)
Running race 16:20 [5] 3.0 mi (5:27 / mi) +20m 5:20 / mi
Birkenhead parkrun - 1st, 16.20
Hometown parkrun, birthday, parkrun PB, sometimes it all comes together...
Admittedly probably a slightly short course, but I went for it, and despite my legs screaming at me from about halfway and I thought I was dying and going to get caught, actually extended my lead.
Not as flat as envisaged, a subtle climb at the end of each lap, and damp conditions, but a very pleasing morning.

Running 28:19 [4] 4.6 mi (6:09 / mi) +120m 5:42 / mi
Run to LBA to pick up hire car
Booked for 4 and left home at 3.30 so no time to waste
Luckily felt good and had wind behind which helped with the fact this was all uphill!
Decent start to xmas period.

Running race 22:48 [5] 4.1 mi (5:34 / mi) +10m 5:31 / mi
Deserter's Dash Xmas Handicap - 1st, 22.48
1 small and 3 large laps - 4.1 mi
You aren't meant to win this twice (2010) but thanks to recent issues, had a handicap of 5 minutes, and didn't feel too bad once I got going so this proved enough.
However, it shouldn't have been, Osama came past with 1 lap to go, then almost immediately stopped to throw up and DNFd
Another 3-400m and the flying Emile would have caught me.
Would have been interesting if had gone off same time as Susan, who was 3s slower net, off 20s worse.
Still, not a bad run, must have been fit in 2013 to run 21.33.
