For those who just want to share their plans and achievements (mundane or otherwise), rather than get drawn into debate about the whys and wherefores of the parkrun organisation generally.

Thanks, Sigh. I had to stop doing fake parkruns when I was in quarantine and haven't got back into the habit. I will try....

Hi Linds! I really like the focus it gives me, some weeks I try harder than others though :-)

Thanks Sigh. I've foolishly signed up for the Virtual London. So my speedier 24 min Fakes have been put on hold. Bolting on slow fake plods to my LSR for time being. Nice to have the fake thread back.

No fakeparkrun for me today, haven't got the mental energy after a very stressful week. Should be back on it next Saturday though.

Thanks for setting this forum up Sigh.

25.55 at fake parkrun for me today. I dropped off badly. I ran my 3.11 miles into a howling gale & crikey, was it hot. It wasn't till I started plodding back home that I had the light bulb moment, "Why didn't I run my fake parkrun with the wind behind me."
I blame it on my age & the lead they used to put in the petrol.

I hope everyone had an enjoyable run today.
