I've added Pontypridd to the race finder - a few of us from Lliswerry Runners are hoping to make it over for the first one! There should be a few more starting up in South Wales soon, we seem to be having a parkrun explosion at the moment!

A few updates to the header, thanks for the contributions. A quick note about one aspect of this week's parkrun newsletter which said: ================================= The National PB Challenge is back: - Run at your local parkrun anywhere in the country this Saturday (the 28th of September), break your PB and you could win a pair of boost shoes! The winner will be picked at random from everyone who PB's on the day. - The parkrun with the biggest collective percentage of PBs set this coming Saturday will win a ‘boost’ for their park! adidas will give the winning parkrun a treat, including some special guests. ================================= I had it clarified that to be eligible for that first prize draw you have to run at an event that you've run at before. So all the people running at a new event to them, like an inaugural, are ineligible. Similarly, the new events won't be able to compete in the second one, as their won't be any PBs...even if someone runs an all-time personal PB, it's only if you run a PB on a course that you've set a time on before. Though I couldn't see any of that in the newsletter, hence why further clarification was needed
