Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I am hoping to get my 100th run at the end of the month. Also nearing 60 volunteer credits.

That’s a good total Lesley considering your volunteering. I’m on 197 runs and 74V.
My first was 2011 but took 10 years to do my first 50.

Well done Looby, well done everyone. Just checked mine - 429 runs, 141 events, 328 volunteers, (inc. 33 at junior parkrun). Should reach 250 runs at my home parkrun in about 3 months.

Volunteer points are strange as we never cared back in the early days - I'm around 250 officially but like my running it is a number that is climbing very slowly :¬)

Fizz :-) wrote:Corby’s course would not be allowed under the current rules as it has a short (41 meter) stretch of narrow pavement next to a road. (Very quiet as it’s a cul-de-sac) They wanted the team to change the course but there is no reasonable alternative so they’ve reluctantly allowed it. The ED now has to warn us that stretch is single file only.

Last weekend I ran my #650 parkrun

Glad it didn`t happen in Summer as I can confirm I was pretty warm running around as I wearing three parkrun t-shirts (500+100+50).
