Grant and Stone Marlow 5


Another May, another Marlow 5 Mile. This time we met lots of friends from Aylesbury Parkrun, both before and after the race. Sunday was perfect for running. Bright but not sunny, mild at around 14C. I knew I couldn't match my time from last year (44 minutes 33secs) and I didn't want to. It was great running at a nice pace at just over 9 minutes per mile, finishing in 45 minutes 11 seconds and 553 out of 993 runners.

The benefit of being just 70 years old came with coming in third of ten in my age group. I wonder how long that will last? Alison also enjoyed her run, apparently there were lots running her pace. As usual we called in at John Lewis at High Wycombe for a well deserved cup of tea and a cake.
