25 second PB on the Eastbourne Summer Course

Please rewrite the following text, keep it as accurate as it is now but make it sound interesting and like it is written by a professional sports journalists. As always Saturday is parkrun day. This morning I head to Eastbourne parkrun where we are still on the much slower Summer course. I have heard slower runners say the grass and dampness underfoot costs them as much as 2 minutes, for me though it is more like 30 seconds. Last summer my fastest time on the summer course was 18:50 and when we got back on the winter route I ran a then PB of 18:30 followed by a 18:17. The below image shows these in reverse order. 

 Note that the 24:39 was the day before a 10k race and the 21:59 was me as the 22 minute pacer. 

Earlier this year I was hoping to get somewhere near my overall PB (17:50) whilst running the Summer course but it wasn't meant to be. Due to the path being rutted we didn't start the summer course until it was really hot. In the heat of the summer I lost my mojo, I forgot how much the heat impacts me, and during the holidays I overindulged on yogurt and put some weight on. I have been back on strict carnivore with some IF and the weight has started to come off nicely and I have been working on my mindset and this is helping me as well. 

2 weeks ago I ran 18:44 for a summer course PB and was pretty happy with this having not run sub 19:14 on the summer route this year. Today I managed to smash that with an 18:20, meaning I have gone 30 seconds quicker on the summer course this year compared to last year, if that improvement translates onto the winter route I am already in PB shape and I am just ramping up training and entering the cooler conditions. I know I have a break that I will have to take at some point over the winter and depending on exactly when that is and how much of an impact it has I think I can, going with a positive mindset here, break 17.

Here is the breakdown of todays run, note my watch always measures these things short and the first km and last km contain the grass so a slower first km is to be expected.:
