Parkrun tomorrow 13/07

[JaoJao]

Much more than just a run in the park! Who is running tomorrow morning?

Good luck 😊😊😊

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10]

As I have already told you JaoJao, I will be running my first parkrun tomorrow, good luck to all first time parkrunners for tomorrow. 😊 🏃

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

You’re going to have the time of your life! Look forward to hearing all about it.

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

Thanks JaoJao, I certainly will report on my first parkrun tomorrow once I get the official result, I am not taking my Smartphone with me, so there won't be a Mapmyrun unofficial time or a metromone running steps app to help me, I'll just follow the person in front. 😊 🏃

[backintime Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

good luck Al

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to backintime]

👍

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

That’s called “running naked” - good on you.

Have got signed up for text message alerting? You also get an email through too.

Don’t forget your barcode!

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

I have already put all my running gear including my barcode in place for tomorrow, yes I have signed up for texts and e mail alerts, also I have received the Parkrun Newsletter.

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

How did it go? Xx

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

Update 13/7, it went very well indeed today, I think I have told you more in detail on another post, this post is from yesterday Friday wishing me well.

[Oldlady57 in reply to AlMorr]

Have fun tomorrow AlMorr on your 1st Parkrun 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to Oldlady57]

👍

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

Good luck dude! Make sure you go for the first timers briefing.

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

Yes, I also have my barcode ready as well. 😊 🏃

[Sp81 Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

Have fun today almorr.

[backintime Graduate10]

good luck tomorrow park runners

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to backintime]

Thank you lovely! Hope your weekend kicks off nicely too ❤️

[Stephen_UK Graduate10]

Will you be writing another report for them this week, JaoJao?

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Stephen_UK]

No not this week Stephen, let someone else have a go. I’ll probably volunteer to write again in a couple months.

[Stephen_UK Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

Ah, that’s a shame but glad you will be doing it again.

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

Is it the duty of the tailwalker or the director to write a full report of Saturday morning's Parkrun?

[Mumpark Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

At our parkrun it’s anybody who volunteers to write the run report

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

I think the directors take ownership of doing it but anyone can do it as a volunteer role. Some Parkruns do not have it which is a shame. The directors at my local one say they run out of things to say so appreciate it when people offer to do it and gives a different perspective.

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

The winner should write a report, especially if he can run it sub 16 minutes. 😊 🏃, but then it would look as if he was boasting about his achievement, better to leave it to a volunteer. 😊

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

Exactly! And the winner may be a regular meaning he will write the report every week 😂

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10]

Me! 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️

I’m hoping it’s a bit cooler than today, but it’ll be fun regardless. 👍

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to cheekychipmunks]

Hey there! Good luck!

Yes, this warm weather makes running so uncomfortable. Apparently it’ll be 18-19c in the south east, some respite!

[Debston Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

That's good to know - a bit cooler than the last couple of weeks then.

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Debston]

18-19 round my way, very comfortable indeed.

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to cheekychipmunks]

How was it?

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

It was such fun, as always! No PB for me today, but I didn’t expect one after my 17k on Thursday, and I could have done with an extra rest day really. It was brilliant nonetheless, albeit really muggy. 🥵🥵

Got to love parkrun! ❤️

[Oldlady57]

Me!!! Happy running Parkrunners!!👍🏻

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Oldlady57]

Yay! The more the merrier! Enjoy your run ❤️

[Oldlady57 in reply to JaoJao]

You too!! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Oldlady57]

How did it go?

[Oldlady57 in reply to JaoJao]

Managed 36:15 with walking lol two minutes faster than last week so pleased with that!! How did you go?

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Oldlady57]

I managed a PB, 35:14, really happy xx

[Oldlady57 in reply to JaoJao]

Well done you. Congrats on your PB!!

[WC8334 Graduate10]

Can't do tomorrow as I have another commitment but will be running next Saturday

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to WC8334]

No worries, look forward to you joining us next Saturday.

[Mumpark Graduate10]

M going tomorrow.

Tail walking with my daughter

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Mumpark]

Have you done tailwalking before?

[Mumpark Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

Yes I’ve done tailwalking loads of times before but it’s the first time I have done it with my daughter.

We only used to have one tailwalker but now we have two

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Mumpark]

Ah that’s great, I always think that role is fun in twos!

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Mumpark]

How was the tailwalking today?

[Windoze Graduate10]

Imma park running! 😎😎🎉

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Windoze]

Enjoy it!

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Windoze]

How was it?

[Windoze Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

As good as always 😎 did a nice steady 5.5k before hand then pootled round in the sun ☀️ with some cool peeps and a some ace chats at the end!

[Tasha99 Graduate10]

Me! Can’t miss one!

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Tasha99]

Go for it!

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Tasha99]

How was it?

[JaoJao Graduate10]

Enjoy all 😊

[JonathanP Graduate10]

Not tomorrow unfortunately as currently waiting at Victoria for midnight coach after seeing Dylan and Neil Young in Hyde Park, so hope to be still in bed at 9! Great concert by the way!😀

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to JonathanP]

Ahhhh you can join us next week hep, concert sounds great though 👍

[Stephen_UK Graduate10 in reply to JonathanP]

Jealous of you going to this! I was very tempted.

[JonathanP Graduate10 in reply to Stephen_UK]

They were both fantastic in very different ways!

[Fatflabtofitfab Graduate10]

I've never done a park tun before but have registered. Thinking of trying this today

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Fatflabtofitfab]

Do it , you will not look back xx

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Fatflabtofitfab]

Did you try it?

[Fatflabtofitfab Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

Yes I did it I did the Humber bridge one. I did it in about 40 minutes in the end which for my first go was alright. I was told that I had picked a challenging course for my first one and there is one down the road at costello stadium that is flat but I felt great completing it. I have a tracker too on a piece of paper to mark them all off to see my progress

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Fatflabtofitfab]

That’s a really good time for your first one. I hope you are now thinking about your second one.

[damienair Administrator]

I’m up already and looking forward to Parkrun . I’m running my 44th today. Getting closer to my 50th Parkrun every week. Can’t wait to get my hands on that red T-Shirt. Enjoy everyone.

I 💕 Parkrun day.😀

Damien

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to damienair]

Happy 44th

[damienair Administrator in reply to JaoJao]

Got in across the line to claim a new PB, by just 2 seconds but I’ll take it.

Damien

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to damienair]

Amazing! I got a new PB today too!

[damienair Administrator in reply to JaoJao]

Yahoo! Well done to you too.

[Fatflabtofitfab Graduate10 in reply to damienair]

Do you get a tshirt free? After running different amount of park runs I saw some tshirts with 50 100 etc on the back

[damienair Administrator in reply to Fatflabtofitfab]

Yes there are free Milestone T-Shirts. The first is a white 10 T-Shirt for kids who run 10 x 5K Parkruns, everyone then gets a free T-Shirt at 50 (red), 100 (black), 250 (green), and 500. I’m sure after that next will be 1000.

I’m 6 away from my red 50 t-shirt and I’ll wear it with pride.

Damien.

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to damienair]

I can’t wait for my 50, I have to do another 44 😂😂

[Bluep Graduate10]

[Bluep Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

It was great! Thoroughly enjoyed it. Not a PB but was lovely, chatted to a few people ... and there was cake!

How was yours?

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Bluep]

I loved mine today, it was cooler than previous weeks and I got a PB. No cake today but there was cake last week

[Bluep Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

Good luck!

[Kat332zz Graduate10]

All ready in my kit, just have to motivate myself out the door in 45 mins. Done a pb each of the last three weeks, so this one is too much pressure!!

Good luck to everyone, enjoy and I hope the weather is good to you all too.

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Kat332zz]

Hope you nail it Kat! Good going getting PBS last few weeks, amazing feeling!

[ElleRee Graduate10]

Me - 2nd one 🤩

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to ElleRee]

Well done!

[Aakk]

Not today, but first Parkrun planned for July 27, looking forward it! Nearest run is on a different island so involves ferry trip and overnight stay . Planned a while ago to celebrate graduating C25K tho now training for a 10k in September.

(Have coordinated with needing to be in town for a meeting that Sat pm)

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Aakk]

Which one is that? Jersey or Bear Island, they come up a lot on the Parkrun podcasts.

[Aakk in reply to JaoJao]

Kirkwall, Orkney, Scotland

[JaoJao Graduate10]

I had an awesome 6th Parkrun, it was a cooler run thankfully and the PBs keep on coming! So so happy, so so addicted!
