DocM 29 Jan 12:00pm, 29 Jan 2020 32259 posts	0 DocM i did both my 50th and my 100th at the same time as son did his. We ran together, he didnt want a fuss so we didnt have a fuss. we hope to do our 250ths together prob in about 2 years time,
Gobi 29 Jan 3:10pm, 29 Jan 2020 68453 posts	0 Gobi Had quite a drama for my 100th with a presentation and a pictureboard but by 250 I no longer cared much for parkrun so ran at a random location with my daughter to avoid all fuss and drama. I enjoy attending other peoples landmarks though so strange attitude really and quite a contradiction.

BexleyKev 4 Feb 8:27am, 4 Feb 2020 493 posts	0 BexleyKev I enjoy celebrating other people's parkrun achievements more than my own especially knowing the commitment and difficulties some have faced to get there. At our current home event we have a noticeboard so that people can note down any milestone that day and if known in advance I make a little poster for our regulars. We were away on holiday for my 250th hoping not to get noticed but they had been tipped off by someone and I didn't get away without it being announced. A nice gesture but not one that I would have wanted.

What do you do (if anything) when you hit a particular milestone?

I'm about to run my 250th...
