Very British Problems goes to parkrun

Courtesy of yesterday’s Daily Telegraph! How many can you tick off fellow park runners?😂

[Julia187 Graduate10]

Ha that’s brilliant! I’m not a park runner but that really made me chuckle!

[backintime Graduate10]

That made me giggle...

[Knittingrunner Graduate10]

None yet but got a huge sweaty hug from an 80yr old gentleman for keeping him going. He and I were playing cat and mouse for 2/3 of the run on Saturday and then he beat me by a second with his long legs!

However a 50 T-shirt would be good. Only 25 left to go 😂

😊 as a veteran of 2 runs, not guilty of any of them; yet. Could generate a list of my own swimming pool mishaps though, like ending up with my hand trapped underneath a lady’s shoulder strap through doing back stroke in an overcrowded pool!! Fortunately she laughed like a drain! 🥵

[Bluebirdrunner Graduate10]

After only 3 Parkruns nos 8 and 9 !!!😆😁😁😁

I high-fived a volunteer marshall on my first one, she wasn't expecting or wanting to, and kept me hanging and jogging on the spot for what felt like forever😂...

No. 1 too , but not kebab just waking with that cheese and wine feeling...now abstaining on Friday nights😉

Thanks for posting this Sandie it made me chuckle 😁xxx

[MuddledGardener Graduate10]

Bahahaha! 🤣🤣🤣 I love Very British Problems! He’s already 100% correct!

[Dexy5 Graduate10]

Love it. 😂😂

[Lavender1962 Graduate10]

I’m guilty of being on a first name basis with most of the runners. But i’m In Canada and an ED.😄

[Couchpotato2]

[Couchpotato2 in reply to Sandie1961]

First PR, an old man walking was faster than me...

[Bluebirdrunner Graduate10 in reply to Couchpotato2]

I was overtaken by a chap pushing a buggy this week!😁...not that old though, to be fair 😂😂😉

[Couchpotato2 in reply to Bluebirdrunner]

I’m overtaken by them each run, no exception... and a few 80 year old women. One day!

[lexi6 Graduate10]

So love that! No 9! Last Saturday at our parkrun, second placegetter was a youngish man pushing his baby in a buggy and I hadn’t even reached the half way point by the time he’d finished! 😂

[Sandie1961 Graduate10 in reply to lexi6]

I was overtaken on Saturday by a child of about 8 wearing crocs!

[lexi6 Graduate10 in reply to Sandie1961]

😂😂😂 oh no! Crocs? There’s no accounting for taste, I blame the parents.

[Sandie1961 Graduate10 in reply to lexi6]

😂🤣😂
