On Monday evening we made the most of our Indian summer to stretch our legs in Norman Park.
As the sun set we lapped the parkrun 5K route, alternating running and walking to gradually improve our stamina, before circling back to join James from the Friends of Norman Park to lend a hand in the on-site micro-forest.
After our back-to-back heatwaves, the saplings are just about clinging on but they need our help with regular watering and weeding to give them the best chance of survival.
Special mention to returnee Vinesh for ticking off his third workout of the day and regular Marina for tagging an extra-long run onto our session.
We'll be back in Norman Park this Saturday morning for the Bromley parkrun – a free 5K course you can run or walk – followed by a coffee catch-up in the nearby Trackside Café.
You can sign up here.
I'll be there – be great if you can make it.
