Decided just to sit behind whoever was in the lead. Did so for 1km but then couldn't help myself but drift to the front. All was good until 4.5km when I was about a minute ahead of the next chap and started looking out for the turn to the finish. At 4.8km I knew I'd missed it and saw a random volunteer packing up from the first lap who told me I had run well past it (thanks mate). Eventually got back with 5.8km in the watch.
Chap who won was on his 100th Parkrun so nice for him to get a win. I jogged afterwards to pick up Charlie, Bec, Kirst and Maggie and all loved the occasion. Then out for breakie. No pan-served breakie or brioche in FNQ.
Splits were 3:21, 3:23, 3:24, 3:28 and 3:45 (becoming frustrated). Hammy held up well so will try 90mins tomorrow.
