If the Park Challenge is delayed till 2014 might be able to take part if I'm not working.

Must get the Rainbow challenge organised for 2014 as well.

For those that aren't on Facebook in the R15 group, Andi/Steeevooo have both expressed that they would still like to do the Park Challenge on Saturday.

If this happens we may well do both a December and January Parks challenge. I propose that if there are 2 editions the one in January should be a start other than Canons Park to add a bit of variety.

Unless anyone objects I propose that the Park Challenge goes ahead as originally planned on Saturday, with an additional Park Challenge in the new year once Kev is better.

If both runs are from Canons Park then times from each day could reasonably be compared?

That could affect two people doing it on the same day differently as well, there's always an element of pot luck
