I was in Manchester last night for the Duran Duran Hallowe’en concert (review coming… eventually. There’s a backlog). A Friday night trip away also provides an opportunity for parkrun tourism, so I tried out Philips Park this morning!
It was very very wet leading up to the start of the run so there weren’t many people out, but I did meet a couple of fellow Scots (both of whom had also been to the concert) and the team were very friendly and in good spirits despite the weather. The course is undulating, so not a super fast one, but it was good to stretch my legs and pick up the pace a little after a couple of weeks of marathon recovery.
Local again next week.
