You won't hear us post much about our local (around 3 miles away) #parkrun, and the elevation chart betrays the reason why. Flatts Lane has a brutal hill section that you have to run twice, and that's been enough to put us off.

Well, I was flying solo today, while my run buddy watched a skittish dog... so I decided to do it.

No regrets. Well, except leg regret, ankle regret, ptsd regret. Beat my previous course best by a good four minutes, but felt every mile of it.
