Hello again. In the Open meeting I mentioned in the previous post, I did the 800 metres and got a new PB, 2mins 31 seconds! This was 4 seconds off my previous PB, set last year on July 26th when I raced for my county. Then I did the 300 metres and got a new PB (because I'd never done it before!) of 48. something seconds. I think that was alright considering I'd never done a 300m before.
I have a league race today, the YDL. I am racing in the Under 15 girls category, where I am the youngest year racing (I am in Year 8). I'm racing in the 1500 metres B string. Hopefully I can get a medal! I'm aiming for a PB - my current one is 5:33. However, I haven't done a 1500m, again since last year, and I'm faster now. I would also like to point out about parkrun. You may be aware that the Little Stoke council are trying to charge the Little Stoke parkrun - the parkrun community managed this dilemma very well. So, I really encourage you to do a parkrun. If you can't muster up the courage to do it, I can assure you (having done 28 parkruns myself) that the atmosphere is extremely friendly and they welcome everyone of all abilities. If you're not sure where your nearest one is, search it up! If you don't know what time it is, it's 9 am until whenever you finish. This means it doesn't take up much of your day, yet you can still get up and do it! Happy running!

If you are finding it hard to get into running, I highly recommend parkrun. It is very welcoming and encourages people of all abilities to get fit and have fun!
