Congratulations on your PB Gives me a target. Started running 2 yrs ago and so far managed 23.53, PB. Recently subscribed after watching your Yorkshire marathon,which I also completed( for 2nd time).Very slowly tho... Will be turning 62 in just over a month.
@SIMONSPECKАй бұрын
Firstly,thank you for Subscribing to our channel much appreciated! We are pretty much the same age I turn 62 on the 24th of this month. If you have only been running for 2 years a sub 24min 5km is pretty impressive!!!!!! Just keep consistent with your running and your times will improve even more. Marathons are hard at our age but i'm sure you will see great improvements with the Marathon as well in time! Thanks again.😄

Was typing this, then thought, just wait a moment, end of parkrun is not necessarily end of video. Thought a glimpse of the bridge was on the cards, actually hopeful for a unique run across as part of parkrun, but it was not to be.

Well done Simon! Not a bad time either 👏🏽 How awesome was that Bagpipe music on the side of the road 🏴🎶 I could smell the forest! What was the story with the man with the massive scissors..? That loop makes our little out and back torture in Sea Point look like kindergarten stuff 😅 Did Jordie Runs finish? That really is a nice pink medal! Onwards to the next one…we run! 🏃🏻👊🏽

@@SIMONSPECK Before even my time, but this one was probably in Feb, now extinct. The start had always been close to the pool. One year we were misdirected at 100m and ran down an alleyway. Two options, a long queue at the one flight of stairs or climb the wall. Hence known as Bellville The Wall race. The badge was redesigned as a brickwall consisting of a lot of individual bricks.
