Over on the Parkrunners Anonomoyous thread there has been a cunning plan being hatched for a summer 10k meet up. Picking up on excellent suggestion from thenightsky here is a shiny new thread for us to use to plot.

So who's in?

feetheart I wanted to do the Reindeer run but I was running somewhere else on the same day. Might put it on my 2014 list too :)

OhOneOhTwoOhThree · 06/01/2014 13:33

feetheart - a friend of mine did a colour run last year and really enjoyed it Smile

Standingonlego · 06/01/2014 22:14

feetheart definately up for the colour run, some NCT folk did it last year and it looked great fun.

OhOne like the all points of the compass idea.

Woburn is do-able for me too :)

My next run is this one www.justracinguk.com/event/2014/wellingborough-mt-dirt-run-r1

It is a series of 3 and you can choose 5, 10 or 15k. Did it last year and it was lovely in the snow Grin

So need to get out the calendar and a map to get organised :)

am voting for Woburn

are we allowed to run where the actual animals are? it will be like Comrades!

Blatherskite · 06/01/2014 22:48

Colour run looks like fun but it's blinking expensive!

Whipsnade Stampede is 8th June this year. I haven't heard of the Woburn one; it sounds good as well, but I'm happy to remain on the other side of the fence to the animals!

BlueChampagne · 07/01/2014 13:46

Depending where it is, I'm up for it.

OhOneOhTwoOhThree · 07/01/2014 14:16

Gah! Almost the only thing in my diary (apart from school holidays starting and finishing Grin) is SIL's wedding on 7 June, which means I won't be able to do Whipsnade.

Still thinking about Wetherby (I don't live near, but have family who do Grin) - anyone else up for it?

feetheart · 07/01/2014 14:51

Excellent Whipsnade are doing another one. Will sign DS and I up asap :)

feetheart · 07/01/2014 15:04

Blatherskite - I agree its pricey. Its costing DS and I just as much to do a 5k run as it is for DH and DD to go to the Ukelele Festival of Great Britain for the whole of that w/e but I couldn't resist :)

Blatherskite · 07/01/2014 22:14

I'm not sure if Woburn do an official run. We just go round ourselves :)

I'm definitely up for the Whipsnade one. Will sign up tomorrow

EauRouge · 08/01/2014 08:21

I'll have to wait until payday, but also planning to do Whipsnade.

Blatherskite · 08/01/2014 12:10

I tried to sign up for Whipsnade but the page isn't live yet. You can fill in all of your details but it goes no-where. I can't seem to pin anyone down to a date it will actually open but it is 'in the next few days' apparently.

feetheart · 08/01/2014 13:15

I emailed yesterday, via a link on there I think, and got a reply saying that it would be open in 'the next week or so' and a promise to email me to let me know.

Do we want to be a team?

EauRouge · 08/01/2014 13:23

What happens if we're a team?

The wolf run looks good- be great if we could muster a team together and have a go in it!!

Blatherskite · 08/01/2014 15:59

Wolf run I will do - but not until August :)

EauRouge · 08/01/2014 16:49

I was looking at the wolf run the other day!

Tiredemma · 08/01/2014 17:48

Let's do it! It will be a scream!its not timed either so not technically a 'race' (so no pressure!)

thenightsky · 08/01/2014 17:52

Oh God, I'm far too old and infirm for the wolf run Sad

overmydeadbody · 08/01/2014 19:32

I'm up for a run around Cambs

overmydeadbody · 08/01/2014 19:33

Does anyone fancy the Wimpole 10k hoohaa?
