Re: Tube Challenge parkrun league...
Just realised that I missed one important stat from this weekends results.
Geofftech achieved his 250th Parkrun at Father Collins.
He becomes the 3rd forum member to achieve this milestone.

As I am heading up to Dundee this weekend as part of All The Buses - National Express Xplorer (why do I say yes to these things?!?!), I shall hopefully be attempting Camperdown Parkrun on Saturday!

Managed to get to Camperdown parkrun (although a little early forgetting to check that it was a 9:30am start!). 1 lap in a figure-of-8 mainly along woodland trails and paths with some decent elevation change and a long hill that feels like it keeps getting steeper at the back of the course. Would definitely recommend as it's a beautiful course and easy to get to from Dundee by bus. Really happy with my time of 25:15 given the nature of the course and still recovering from a training 5k run on Thursday.

Re: Tube Challenge parkrun league...
Lovely trip down to East Brighton parkrun with Andi who injured himself early on leading to him walking the rest and my lapping him for possibly the first time.It's a very twisty course with slightly different starts to each lap and then the rest the same. Plus a warning in the race briefing that if the medical helicopter needs to land on the football pitch then the parkrun will be abandoned!! Fortunately it didn't happen.
Full Network: Three completions, Best time: 17:18:18 - thanks Glen, Andrew and Rhys!

What happened Andi? Did they scan your barcode? I'm assuming that you are the UNKNOWN runner shown in 123rd position?

Re: Tube Challenge parkrun league...
I must admit they didn't seem a great or friendly bunch when I went there - appeared very inclusive I thought.... The only one less friendly was Wanstead Flats if you recall Andi...dstock17 wrote: ↑15 Apr 2019, 07:41
