Today's tourist adventure was Horton Park #parkrun. A delightful Victorian Park in Bradford. 3 laps where the uphill felt significantly more than the downhill. Lots of thanks to the volunteers helping me up that hill. #runnersofmastodon #over60running #trailrunning

A lovely morning run at Penistone Parkrun this morning. A nice flat out and back course along the Trans Penine Trail with amazing views over Penistone and a tough run round a wet field to start and finish the run. Surprised myself with a 22:37 and 3rd in the old guys age group as im not feeling well with a cold. Yet another green spot on my @parkrunner.app #mentalhealth #trailrunning #parkrun #runnersofmastodon @penistoneparkrn #ukrunchat

A breezy bit of tourism this morning at Morecambe Prom Parkrun. A delightful out & back flat course along the prom until you turn round and come back into the wind. The mountains of the Lake District accross the bay are a terrific sight looming darkly in the distance. The Marshals were terrific today, lots of encouragement all the way round. #over60running #parkrun #mentalhealth #trailrunning #runnersofmastodon

Tough bit of #trailrunning this morning starting off at the Cat & Fiddle and up to Shining Tor on to Cats Tor and then down to Errwood Reservoir before that steep gruelling climb back up the hill. Magnificent views from Sining Tor before the drizzle started. The hills around Manchester are just wonderful. #runnersofmastodon #OldMenRunning #mentalhealth

What an amazing location for a #parkrun at Trentham Gardens. A terrific one lap course on good paths with only a small hill on loose gravel to contend with and stunning views of the beautiful landscaped gardens. Big thanks to the high viz heroes and @TrenthamEstate for making this happen. #OldMenRunning #trailrunning #runnersofmastodon @DaveMac

A wet & wild #parkrun this morning at Greenfield Valley in Wales. A beautiful course even in the rain with a great view of the ruins of the medieval Basingwerk Abbey but a long 2.5km hill to finish made me glad to see the rather soggy looking finish sign. I ended up in 8th place and 1st in the old geezers age group. Another green tourist spot on my 5k app #ParkRun #runnersofmastodon #mentalhealth #trailrunning

No rain this morning for my 178th parkrun at the very beautiful #ChevinForest parkrun. What a wonderful forest trail with a rough, stoney, killer hill right at the start. I finished a slow 41st place but first in the old guys age group. Thanks to the volunteers for making this happen. You are the real stars @ukrunchat #trailrunning #parkrun #mentalhealth #runnersofmastodon

No #parkrun today but i did a rather wet Tolkien Trail 11k instead organised by @PennineTrails. A really fabulous venue at Stonyhurst College (Hogwarts) where Tolkien studied and a truly lovely route. The last ½k to the finish along the long staight road to the college felt like forever though. I was 54th out of 357 runners and 2nd in the older gentleman's catagory #trailrunning #tolkien #runnersofmastodon #mentalhealth #over60running

What a terrific but incredibly tough race today at the #TittesworthTrail10k magnificently organised by @RunThroughUK. Stunning views across the water and from the top of the hill and so pleased with my 18th place and 1st place in the old folks catagory. #Trailrunning #over60running #mentalhealth

Lovely Parkrun this morning at Centre Vale Parkrun. Great course with some fantastic trail paths through the woods that smelt terrific in the wet and a couple of hills thrown in too. Big thanks to the really friendly team for making everyone feel welcome. #ParkRun #ukrunchat #mentalhealth #trailrunning #over60running
