I know Curlygurly2 has already posted, here's my contribution! I've included a pic of the crowd as, Curly mentioned it was a record breaker with the highest attendance recorded so far..... 558...

Great atmosphere, great company, awesome volunteers.

We'll be back to do the double next weekend - I will be in disguise on Saturday.....πŸ˜‰

Report to follow (of course!)

Hope everyone is having a lovely time, whatever you may be doing.

Mission accomplished Millsie-J πŸ‘πŸŽ…πŸ‘

Are you going as a banana? Didn't someone run on Christmas Eve as a 🍌? not a C25Ker, but a runner from somewhere. Now I would love to see a running banana. Oh Madge, I can't wait, I'm getting all restless and excited, just wondering what you're going to be wearing! He, he, he! 😊X

Well yes there was a banana, there's also lanky the giraffe, he might be about somewhere - ask poppypug ......πŸ˜„, I did overtake a giant whoopee cushion once, not sure if that's something to be proud of...

I'll give you one clue, Irish-John 's FKT might be putting in an appearance.....πŸ˜‰

That's it, no more, you'll have to wait and see....πŸ˜„

OMG that is far too cryptic for my one teeny tiny brain cell to compute! I'm just going to have to be patient and wait for the photo! πŸ˜‚

I think I'd be proud to overtake anything Madge, even a giant whoopee cushion! Got to celebrate your achievements whenever you can! I'd love to introduce you to my mum "And this is Madge, you know, the lovely lady who overtook a whoopee cushion that time" LOL! πŸ˜‚ πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Ha, ha, yes, small victories! I'm sure that banana has turned up at our parkrun aswell at some point......

I must tell you, my Saturday outfit, I got the final bits from a shopping trip the other day, got home, daughter was in her bedroom, I called to her, 'shall I show you what I got from town?', 'go on then' she says, expecting maybe a new top, shoes etc., I put it on an walked into her bedroom......'oh, errr, I wasn't expecting that!' and a few giggles, she immediately took a photo of me and sent it to her friend, who replied....'something for parkrun is it?'.....πŸ˜„.......they know me too well.....πŸ˜‰

Ooh Madge, you're such a tease! My younger son was given an inflatable giraffe costume by his older brother for Christmas. Have to say, the younger one is in his first year at university, so delighted with the thoughtful gift. I can't wait to take a photo of him in his costume. He's got ridiculously long lanky legs too, so he's perfect for the rΓ΄le of giraffe! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
