Daventry ParkRun

Ninety-one ParkRuns done,
Daventry was a first,
Five kilometres on varied paths,
Through tarmac, mud, and thirst.

Bridges crossed and grassy trails,
Shale beneath my feet,
A warm and sunny morning,
Made the run complete.

Seventy-fourth I finished,
In 26:28,
A steady pace, a solid time,
No slowing, (hmm, debate?)

Each run a step, a challenge met,
New course to explore,
Daventry’s mix of paths and views
Adds something to my score.
