Chapter 82 : Umhlanga Parkrun (C)






Umhlanga Park Run South Africa

The crowd becomes bigger and thicker. The start means us back runners start to walk. We walk for over a minute and I peer looking for signs of people ahead of me running. A walk morphs into halted jogging and eventually running. We are sharing a public footpath in the middle of holiday season with swimmers, surfers, walkers, prams and dogs. One lady yells to herself, “This is a public footpath. Stick to the left.”
After less than two kays we share the footpath with fast runners approaching us on the right side of the footpath.
I dodge, dawdle and intermittently run depending on what is ahead on the footpath.
