Cheg Jan 2021 9:47am, 22 Jan 2021 2,365 posts	Quote Pin Cheg I will be crushed if the Olympics don't happen from my viewing pleasure point of view. But the worst is the athletes. It is a once every 4 year event and athletes that are right at the ends of their career but were ready for 2020 and then hung on for 2021 would then be too old come 2024. Particularly the first time Olympians. It's obviously small fry in this most miserable of times but for those athletes personally it will be devastating.

I think we might manage 1st Jan 2022 for parkrun if vaccinations continue at the pace they've set.
