Got out of bed! Made tea! Left the house on a bike! Made parkrun with 2 minutes to spare! Yay!! Earlier it was not looking good. Between 7 and 7:15am I exchanged a long string of excuses with Imo resulting in her bailing and me suddenly deciding I had just enough time and motivation.
Started off with a brisk walk, stopped for a stretch of the back (and some kind person asked me if I was fainting). Shortly after, Gramps and Davo caught me up, going real slow. I had the great pleasure of pootling round with them for the rest. Sometimes I ran a bit faster and got ahead so I could have a walk break. Sciatica complaining a bit but I did quite a lot of running. As we joggled along Gramps said we were doing 6 min pace. It felt so slow and easy that I have high hopes of running well if/when I get my spine under control.

Cycled with blackhole around bottom of ainslie to philip ave, then back on bike path to Liz and Davo's (next to dicko wetland) for breakfast with everyone. Very pleasant and it was great to see Davo's bath and beautiful garden.
