The Parkrun Thread

Yeah, the group that runs Clontarf doesnā€™t post out race numbers and T-shirts. You need to collect on designated days beforehand or on race morning. Every penny counts.

6 Bottles of Aspall Premier cru cider last night (6.8%) and 4 cans of IPA, I was still half pissed starting out, finally got a rhythm going after 4k and overtook around 80 people with a last k averaging 5:58 a mile, caught a young lad of 11 on the line, what feeling

Any posers take their tops off during the run today?

Ooh, itā€™s very warm, Iā€™ll take my top off and run with it in my hand.

Should be a 4-week Parkrun ban minimum.

First time in about 5 months I wasnā€™t dying this morning, some auld cunt elbowed me out of the way at the start and tore off, one of those club diehards in his late 50ā€™s with a club singlet on, I hunted the fucker down and waited for the last 200 metres to obliterate the fucker with a 4:35 mile pace last bust, there was 5 seconds in the end

The Parkrun is one of the few things in modern life which is positive in every single way. Itā€™s a brilliant concept, staffed by lovely people and offers something to everyone.
Itā€™s perfect.
