Wycombe Rye parkrun

Running with my turbo booster!
Run number 32, finishing time 30:35 - my 3rd best time
No white shirt as I was running topless with an ECG holter monitor to investigate a low heart rate and some irregular heart rhythms.
I even managed to make the weekly parkrun news report:
"It was terrific to have support again from Hughenden Valley Surgery, one of our parkrun Practices. Many people extol the virtues of parkrun and the improvements it has made to their mental and physical health. I know Peter Jemmett (269th, 30:35) has shared his story several times and continues his quest to achieve a sub-30min time (just 9 secs off his PB today) showing that if you follow a structured plan to fitness, with precautions appropriate to your condition, you really can achieve the desired results. I believe that Peter senses that every member of the parkrun community that works for the NHS follows him in, in the same way as the rescue services follow a stricken aeroplane down the runway as it comes into land - but we all know that isn't the case and it is great to see him running with increased confidence week-on-week. Maybe keep the shirt on, though? Haha."
