Oscar's Everyone Day

Sunday 22nd June 2025
In 2021 Oscar the Grouch proposed one day each year where "we unite as a community and EVERYONE records an activity of some sort - a dog walk, a run, a swim, a ride, ski if you want...".

Sadly we lost Oscar in March 2024, so now we dedicate Everyone Day to him. Thank you for the inspiration you gave us Oscar.

I'll never know if it was or not, but my pace graph did seem to point to something.

Metro_Nome Jan 2021 9:40pm, 20 Jan 2021 5,976 posts	Quote Pin Metro_Nome *side note Been feeling a bit grotty the last week or so. Snotty nose but no COVID symptoms. Didn’t isolate (continued to run and walk dog away from people) but did avoid seeing people eg for runs/walks (only time i go out) Through yesterday and into last night did develop a cough. V little sleep last night due to coughing. 6am this morning booked a test. 8am test slot. Very well organised, out by 8:15am. All very well organised. 20:01 text received saying negative. 20:04 likewise for hubby (long 3 mins) All very well done and feeling exceedingly grateful for NHS and volunteers. Also v relieved- even one day of not being able to go out was crappy
