Got this last week and wore it Saturday, nice piece of kit! And all proceeds go into Parkrun, so don't mind it being a tad expensive. Will put photo on with me wearing it when pics come through, get a discount for something else as well, so looking at getting a short sleeved one as well..😊

I looked at these online and they looked rather nice. I just wasn't sure how they felt material wise. Maybe now I have heard a good review I should get one too. Thank you.

There'll be PB's in that Dave, that's for sure! Love 'em, I've got the vest and short sleeve, and the 50 and the 25 volunteer, my favourite shirts really comfy, great material, highly recommended, and as you say when you buy these, they give something back to parkrun.

What's not to like....πŸ˜„

I've asked for one for Christmas.....fingers crossed.....

That looks just the best. I really like the colour. It's nice and bright and looks like it is well made and going to do its job well. A short sleeved one for warmer weather would be a great idea too. Happy shopping and happy running and happy Christmas Dave. πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸƒπŸ»πŸƒπŸΌβ€β™€οΈπŸƒπŸ»πŸƒπŸΌβ€β™€οΈπŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸŽ…πŸ»πŸŽ…πŸ»β˜ƒοΈβ˜ƒοΈπŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

Yes Flossie, am going for a run soon, around supermarket with trolley! and Slinky, having a look at Christmas fare, see what else we fancy that's different, any recommendations welcome.

How are you now, still on IC? A very merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you to..πŸ˜ŠπŸ””πŸŽ…

Ooh Supermarket Sweep! Go you Dave! I like Stollen, probably shouldn't eat any this year, as still on the IC, three weeks (so 2.5 now) on crutches to go, then maybe another 3, but . . . maybe not! :) I am cooking the sprouts this year with crispy bacon bits on top. Do you do that? Also definitely necessary to have pigs in blankets, and LOADS too! It doesn't matter how many I cook, they all go. Of course this year, I have an elf or two to help out in the kitchen, so should be highly amusing. :) Love the bell emoji! Enjoy your trolley dash!

Hopefully won't be too busy the time we go, yes we're doing the bacon bits & pib are a requirement, having prosecco just with dinner this year, as slinky wants.

Then out again tomorrow on my own hunting around main town in Debenhams and jewellers, something for slinky. Was it your knee that gave out? Enjoy Christmas! Eat, drink be merry! Then in the NY you would have recovered from your injury so get back and work it off!😊

Now Slinky sounds like my kinda girl. Prosecco with dinner and some jewellery as a prezzie - buy her something sparkly, if that is what she likes. I went to the opticians yesterday and chose some lovely new specs with sparkly bits on the corner of the things that go over your ears, are they called arms?

Yup, it was my knee that gave out, or gave in ;) Apparently my left knee moan was actually more of a shout "oh my gawd" but I didn't really think too much about it until it wouldn't stop hurting and kept blowing up to the size of a football. Ah well, as you say, I am hoping that I can get out there in the NY and work off any excess blubber that will no doubt have worked its way onto certain areas of my body, but I am going to enjoy Christmas and look forward to running it all off when I can :)

Very nice! I keep looking at them, putting them in the online "basket" and then not proceeding to check out because I'm not sure what size to order. They're quite expensive as you say so I don't want to buy one and then not wear it. I prefer loose-fitting to figure-hugging but don't want hugely-baggy either... I might resort to sidling up to any woman at parkrun who is wearing one and who looks about my size at parkrun and asking her what size her top is! Because that wouldn't be at all weird would it? :)

They run pretty much true to size, see my review on the website😊

They are loose rather than tight fitting. I also have some Nike miler running tops, which are also a loose fitting style and I would say the fit is identical. My fit problem is being large round the boobs (even when compressed is a sports bra). The XL fits easily over a 36h Shockabsorber with space for a base layer. You can of course return them unless you have them personalised with your home parkrun. I took the risk of getting mine personalised (mainly because I like to be a parkrun tourist) but fortunately am pleased with it.

I got the size I usually get in tech t-shirts (which for me tend to be a bit large), and find it a nice fit, far from skin-tight, but not baggy by any means. Nb my shoulders are on the narrow side.

Depends what size you get wether you want tight or loose fitting! If anything my usual size in these compared to other tops of the same size is very slightly under, but still good even with my usual compression base layer...
