After a really good night of braai’ing, beer and brandy, the last thing I felt like doing this morning was a Parkrun.
It’s often the last thing I feel like doing full stop, but at 7am this morning, it was an even less attractive option than usual.
But there’s more than one person in this marriage, and this was the occasion of Mrs 6000’s 50th Parkrun, and so I was up and ready to support her in this impressive achievement.
For the record, it was my 6th Parkrun, my first in almost 3 years, and my first in South Africa in almost 6 years. (I did say that it wasn’t my thing.)
But the Agulhas sunrise wasn’t bad…
The run done, I gave my legs a stretch on a speedy 2½km to the lighthouse, where we grabbed some decent coffee at the new Needles restaurant.
Home, showered and breakfasted, I just have to stay awake for United’s last game of the season, and then I can sleep off the excesses of last night and this morning.
Happy Saturday.
