I still desparately want a time turner so I can do more, but yesterday I managed pretty well without one.
It was the first parkrun ever to happen on the 29th of February, and it was also my 50th, so I really didn't want to miss it.
However, it was also the next race in the Surfski Scotland Winter Series, which I would have been gutted to miss, almost at the same time.
So... I did both. I wasn't sure whether it would work out, but I found Meadowmill parkrun which was a lot closer to the start of the race, ran it, got my barcode scanned, ran to the car, had a banana and an electrolyte drink, drove to Yellowcraig Beach, pulled a cag and a buoyancy aid over my running kit and did the race. It wouldn't have worked if the really cool people who run these races hadn't helped me so much.
It was great fun, the scenery over there is stunning and I was rewarded with a big portion of mussels ; )
Such a good day.
Thank you, paddling friends!
