sparklecloud 8 Mar 1:19pm, 8 Mar 2025 1,413 posts	Quote Pin sparklecloud Hi all, got a question that I thought I'd ask here before venturing onto the Facebook groups. I've done Heaton Park a couple of times recently (in-laws moved near there) and they have all these special coloured vests for people to wear when celebrating milestones, birthdays, first parkrun etc. I'm going to be doing a milestone at Bushy Park in a few weeks' time - does anyone know if they have something similar? If not I'll sort something out myself. Thanks!

Pothunter 8 Mar 6:48pm, 8 Mar 2025 10,113 posts	Quote Pin Pothunter Another big turnout (for us) at Avery Hill today for our not-inaugural. Funnily enough exactly the same as last week’s farewell to Greenwich with 325 finishers. Not seen numbers that high since before lockdown.
OO61 8 Mar 7:00pm, 8 Mar 2025 905 posts	Quote Pin OO61 Oh no @Windsor Wool bet you did the loop 😆 Silloth parkrun for me. Lovely event with loos, free parking and a lovely volunteer crew and cafe- highly recommend if you are in Cumbria.
Windsor Wool 8 Mar 7:32pm, 8 Mar 2025 6,675 posts	Quote Pin Windsor Wool LOL, no I didn’t do the the loop but still shuffled a bit far back. Just wanted to enjoy it tbh which can be seen by the fact that I ran 19:00. Running round numbers like that is shameful 😂.
