I was at Lymington Woodside in the drizzle last Saturday for my 99th parkrun.

Next Saturday, 1st July, I intend to be at Rushmoor parkrun for my 100th. This will also see me complete every parkrun in Hampshire. If anyone can make it, you are welcome to join me.

Update done: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... sp=sharing

Note that Upton House is not to be confused with Upton Court. Tractakid is now just one run behind Geoff.

49 down, and wouldn't you believe it - next week my home run is cancelled for Paddle Round The Pier, and the following week I'm back in Kent seeing family! Unlikely to earn my shirt until July 15th!

Spreadsheet is updated: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... sp=sharing

A huge PB for crypto puts him up several places, and tractakid has now equalled Geoff's total number of runs done. He's finding it more difficult to get ahead of GU in the unique courses stakes though. :)

Didn't quite believe the time myself when I looked at my watch. Turns out that bike commuting might be doing wonders for this whole running schtick.

Same as me when I did my PB. It seemed like such an easy run too. No idea how I did it ...

We have an update: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... sp=sharing

I did my first Parkrun since January, huffing and puffing round Exeter Riverside in a dismal time of 25:02. I haven't been for a run of any description in over two months, so I can't be too unhappy with that I suppose.

In other news, tractakid now holds the outright record for total number of runs completed, but can't get on top of GU for the unique courses title. Who will reach 100 first? The honeymoon is definitely over for Al at Cannock Chase. Will he ever get that PB below 30 minutes? Nothing much else to report.
