If anyone's around beforehand, it would be good to see you at Gladstone parkrun (Dollis Hill station) for a warm up 5k at 09:00 :)

Maybe, but I need to try and get some time on Sunday to research it and work out if I can come up with a route that is even slightly sane first.

For those of you that are not on a certain social networking site I had a very bad crash on my Cycle in the early hours of Saturday morning damaging eye, shoulder, wrist and leg is so bad I can't get upstairs at the moment..

I have been signed off work for a week, so would it be acceptable to those that were planning to attend if I was to postpone this until I am better in the New Year?

Please let me have your thoughts, thanks :)

I do quite fancy doing something next weekend. If we put off the parks would people be up for something instead?

As for early 2014 its the all lines on the 4th and I am away Friday to Monday the next weekend.

Yes it doesn't have to be in the first couple of weeks of 2014 and I may be missing my first ever R15 if I am still broken :(

Well I'm free on Saturday to do some sort of challenge, whether it is the Park Challenge or something else.

We could always try this one and push Kev around in a wheelchair!

Or there is the Rainbow Challenge, which has not yet been done

I think Glen should be present for the inaugral Rainbow Challenge seeing as he is its inventor.

How about the SLAM? :P

OK, so I've now been informed it WAS his fault. :roll:

The change to the Park challenge means I won't now be heading to Gladstone Parkrun, i'll be heading to Nonsuch instead. Or if trains mess up on me i'll try to get to any one I can! (Probably Highbury Fields but I should be fine!)
