For this week’s challenge we split into boys versus girls to see who could get the better 5k times as a team over the weekend. It was me and David vs Jenny and Laurie. David and Jenny set down the gauntlet on the Saturday recordings times of 24:31 and 25:46 respectively. This left Laurie with a deficit of 75 seconds to make up for the girls. On the Sunday me and Laurie logged our 5k runs and the results were counted. I managed a time of 27:05, had Laurie done enough??
Well it was very tight in the end. The boys combined efforts were 51:36 and the girls was 51:46!!!! Only 10 seconds in it but the boys just about pipped it to the post with Laurie managing a time of 26 minutes dead.
Great running everyone!! From all your Strava comments it looks like it might have been a bit of a shock to the system.... Sorry! But having to push yourself after so long without parkruns or actual races will be good preparation for when things do start to open up again, hopefully not long away!
