Bar codes at the ready, parkrunners anonymous keep going 5K at a time

[OhOneOhTwoOhThree]

New thread for park runners old and new. Who's running at home and away this weekend? Who's volunteering?

I did indeed, that's by far my fastest post injury time. I did a great (tough) hills training session this week, and I'm using my new hands-free leash with the dog, which also helps with speed.

Have a good run, Blathers!

Well done Melanie!
Edith I've just seen on the new parkrun Facebook page that there us a new one at Kilkhampton?
Do you know it?

Oh really? Kilkhampton isn't that far from me, up towards Bude. Will check it out. Thanks

parkrun is cancelled this weekend for another event in the park. What to do? Tourism or lie-in?

You should come to cornwall

The great thing about parkrun is that you have to decide until you wake up!

Tourism! Come and see my 50 t-shirt

I think St Albans is calling :)

My T-shirt has arrived!!!! Will have to go late to hockey to collect it :)

Am going to Bournemouth this week.

feet check the SA fb page. I think they are doing fancy dress.

My ds wants me to do

Time to bring out the blue tutu again then :)

I predict DS will be Batman (has t-shirt with added cape that he wears at every opportunity :))

Ooh choices, choices! feet what is parking like at SA? And do they start dead on 9 am? I will be arriving back from a week-long work trip very late on Friday night and may not be at my best on Saturday morning . Given my record on finding and parking at MK and Northampton I need somewhere easy .

Ohone - parking is limited but probably OK if you get there in good time (we were very early last time as I was unsure how long it would take us) We can pick you up at Parkway if you want.
They did seem to start on time :)

At SA if you get there early you can park at Westminster Lodge car park and walk. The other one should be ok if you get there at 845 ish.

I am doing the Bournemouth one on Saturday. My first bit of tourism.

That's very kind feet but I fear that will mean me getting up even earlier!

Enjoy your tourism Halle

Enjoy SA oh. I am going to miss it but looking forwards to some tourism. Trying to get DH to run too as my mum is around to look after the DCs.

50 T shirt arrival was a false alarm , Mine is apparently on the "out of stock" list . Our RD got carried away and did not read all the labels.

Halle I have done bournemouth as a tourist, very friendly and good cake/bacon rolls in the pavilion afterwards so remember to take some cash :) Hope you can persuade DH to join you.

No sign of my red Tshirt either. But I'm making my dog a red cape with "50" on it so we can have matching attire when it does arrive

I am not going anywhere tomorrow . My flight home is delayed by at least 2 hours, and I've just had a reminder from the bank that we have a meeting at 11:00 tomorrow, which would have been do-able if I was running at home, but not if I have to get back from anywhere further afield.

Rubbish OhOneOhTwoOhThree, hope you're not delayed too long :(

Boo to that Ohone - hope you didn't get home too late and managed a decent lie-in?

Batman predictions for DS were premature (failure to find cloak) so it's Superman now (using 2nd string red cloak :))

Lovely piece on BBC breakfast this morning!

Happy 10th Birthday, parkrun

Good morning parkrunners!

Melanie I am loving the idea of your dog in a 50 cape

feet hope St albans and fancy dress are fun today

I am home and have lots of sleep to catch up on. Despite that I still woke up at parkrun o'clock!

Woohoo - PB for DS and I today (possibly by over a minute for DS :)). Waiting impatiently for official times now!

melanie I too love the idea of your dog in a cape! Please please please don't let that happen without showing us a picture! Sounds like there's been a lot of cape action this morning with minifeet at it too

I had a lovely parkrun, running with an old colleague I haven't seen since I went on mat leave. I didn't know she runs. Hope I wasn't holding her back!

Major GPS fail do will have to wait for my email.
