Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I had a bit of a surprise this weekend on checking my two most recent parkrun results as I've exceeded 60% in both. 63.31% (pancake flat) and 61.67% (a bit hilly).

Now I'm going to see how much faster I'd need to go to hit the next milestones...

A few years ago I was around 65%, but a long way off that now. Missed out on 60% by 5 seconds in a 3 mile race last week. The only race in the last 3 years I've gone over 60% was last years Kirkintilloch 10K, which is coming back round in a few weeks, so hopefully I can repeat that this year. Maybe even manage a 60% standard this year (currently 56%)

Ah, I've only just discovered this thread.

Target to achieve 60% in all rounds of the EMGP 2019 series of eight races. With the exception on MK10K all are hilly courses.

mkac.org.uk

So far so good.

Blisworth Friday 5 = 62.33
Rugby 6 = 61.46%

Banbury 5 week after next.

As the rounds progress I expect to get slower.

Or will I?
