Re: Tube Challenge parkrun league...
Yeah, I might abandon MEP myself for a bit soon - tiring of hills! I want to give Exeter another bash. Or maybe Tamar Lakes again - I liked that one.

Re: Tube Challenge parkrun league...
I wonder what is the record for most tube challengers at the same Parkrun?

Probably today, with ten people. The table is full of PBs, CBs and best finishing positions today.

parkruns done in 2016 that are in Hampshire:
Southsea (obviously)
parkruns done in 2016 that are not in Hampshire:
Hove Promenade, Brighton & Hove, Barking (twice), Northala Fields, Dulwich, Milton Keynes, Pymmes
I think I may be geographically challenged.
Also, from next week, there will a be an additional Hampshire parkrun. I intend to do Southampton next week. It's their 200th run so could be a good turnout.

Re: Tube Challenge parkrun league...
I am also aiming to tick off Devon and Cornwall this year. Then I can think about moving further afield to Somerset.
This weekend I will be returning to Plymvalley, as the normal course is back open, so I won't have to run up that bloody hill twice! After that, I need to organise a trip to Penrose to beat Nozza ...

Actually, I was walking through that area the other day (I was just south of the motorway, by the lido) wondering whether you could fit a parkrun in with the problem that some of the paths are shared cycleways.
Seems they can.
I might make this my first inaugural.
