WTAF..... (don't get me started on updates Chris HB, bane of my life with a phone, laptop and several Garmins. The Garmins are the worst - if you survive an update with a still working machine that still has history and all your settings it's a bloody miracle.)

Surrey Phil Mar 2017 11:17pm, 20 Mar 2017 1,890 posts	Quote Pin Surrey Phil If I park my car at a designated race car park, I am always leafleted. I don't mind that as it's a good reminder of what other events are out there. I have also been recommended to do the same for races I organise but I am a bit reluctant to leaflet the local parkrunners vehicles.
