Wow at the age of 70 years and and six months into her challenge to run at least 70 events in her 70th year not only did Kathy complete event 56 at Telford parkrun she also recorded a parkrun personal best time in 35:49.
7 Pools 10k Multiterrain - 23rd March
When we arrived at Sutton Park the weather was very cold, 477 took part and we started on time, off we went across a lovely field then on to the path then ascending up the hill. I was stranded behind two rather large ladies who were just out for a jog, I had already asked if I could pass but as there was no response I altered my tone of voice and I got a rather stern look from the lady runners. At last I manage to get going up quite a steep hill including lots of mud. After about 3 miles we then went though some lovely woods it was here I really had to watch my footing. By now I had managed to collect two chubby dogs, one each side. I don't know if I was the pace maker or the dogs were my pacemaker. Running around the 5th pool there were plenty of narrow paths and then finally back to the finish which had a very steep hill at the end.
I really loved this race and would love to do it again, it had everything. The two ladies came in at last. I had a nice T-shirt. The money raised was for disabled children in the Sutton Coldfield area. My time was 1:31
