I'm not fussed on the hair colour mind. And it's a struggle to let the cross them finish first.

Esspecially when it almost feels like you're jousting

Results stalking. It's even better when they link their strava profile too.

It's pretty easy to tell a lass from behind you weirdo.

Depends on what time you're aiming for.

Anyone still doing these? Been the last few weeks and determined to break the 22 min before my big birthday in the end of July. Posted a 22:23 last week but was very hungover today and did just over 23 mins. It seems a canny way off still.

 

[FriendlySoul]

Yeah, I still do the Whitley Bay one most weeks....

There was 374 runners this morning like, it’s not losing its popularity...

A sub 22 minutes is my dream at the minute.. PB is 22.50, which is a million miles away from my 26 minute effort this morning

Raced the Sunderland one pretty hard but not flat out the other week. Got a course pb which is what I wanted. Tend to so shields as it's closer. It's harder like.

I was at Hartlepool parkrun yesterday & met some of the people getting Horden parkrun off the ground.

Been waiting 6 months for my 100 tshirt.

The one at the town moor is good for a pb.

Started running last week for the 1st time in about 13 years, I'm addicted already.

Got a couple of 5K's in early part of the week and then did the Newcastle Park Run on Saturday, finished with a time of 24:33 which I was pretty happy about for my 1st go. Going to get a run in tonight or early tomorrow morning round Regents park as I'm down the smoke later on.

Haven't read the whole thing but an interesting report on the Park Run.
The average time is getting slower each year but they are proud of it as it shows they are attracting a wider demographic.
