    Linda...I've checked the Parkrun site and can't see anything in Essex. When I type in Essex in the region search, it takes me to a map of Lagos, Nigeria?? Bit far to go for a 5k run methinks :D

    Any ideas?
    YOUR = belonging to you (your coat); YOU'RE = you are (I hope you're ok)

    really....it's not hard to understand :T

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    The nearest ones I could find were Greenwich and Bromley, Suze...

    The new barcode system is a great idea but I don't have a printer. I have two weekends off in May I think so will try to get to the Leeds one but will have to find a way to print mine off first.

    i found a few runs in Manchester which would be doable - but I could easily just do my own if I has even an ounce of motivation! Ok i am setting myself a goal to get out and start next week - I must get out and do the 5k circuit round my area at least twice next week - even if I only walk most of it!
