Blog2026 ≫ There is no parkrun at our holiday destination

Looking into holiday, we're away for only one Saturday, but I always try and do a parkrun. There are no parkruns near this place, none in the country. There's an unofficial one in the city, I could still do a 9am run. It would still count on Strava but not for parkrun. But nothing to lose by doing it really, except that it will be hot.

No parkrun the next two weeks here either for other events. Maybe this is the point I stop running?

Real nice out today, I went out for a walk after a busy day of work. Warm and sunny, a really warm breeze blowing over me as I walked to Sandgate and back. Was pretty hot out yesterday, which was more surprising. Getting nicer as the week goes on, as long as by "nice" you mean "hotter". It's going to be thirty degrees in London.

Is there football on today? Everyone else is revising or playing Mario Kart.

Light cloud and a moderate breeze, 15 - 21℃.
