While Soup Dragon is busy planning and executing his mammoth stroll, he has asked me to take over updating the spreadsheet. I wasn't meant to do it yet actually so I hope he isn't offended by me jumping in early but it was a bit behind.

However before I dedicate too much energy to it, do people use the app that lets you add people to a friend list and check in that way? If most people are using that, then the spreadsheet is arguably redundant. I'd welcome any relevant thoughts.

The spreadsheet is up to date through 01-04-2023 and can be found here.

@tubeguru - it's me, Scriv. Former tube geek, current parkrun obsessive.

Well done everyone who got out there this week! We had a little flurry of 2023 bests, and some solid progress towards some of the other silly badges recognised challenges too. I mean to add more of these to the spreadsheet when I have the time. I never have the time.

Toyen has a 120m incline that you run up four times - it feels like it gets longer each time! It's mostly tarmac with a brief bit on grass. Clearly laid out and well marshalled, though
