About 3/4 of mine have been at what have been my 3 home events. But I do quite like to try and do a parkrun if there is one at, or near, a place that I’m visiting.

Actually just on p=7 Craigellachie, one away from eight and a theoretical three from nine. I think, but the servers are down (code 503). I quite like the p-index as well, but I'm just letting in come rather than chasing it.

Ah, thought you said seven in addition to your home one but 7 still high, very nearly a red T shirt on it’s own! Yes I tend to agree, let it happen, don’t want to be one of those throwing a tantrum because LAST week was cancelled causing this week’s hotel booking to be for a non-prime number … or is that too controversial for here?

V-index is my best metric I think, it's 14 :-) p-index is 4, must try harder!

Did a good, if a little warm, run at Exmouth this morning. Thought I had gotva PPPB until I checked my times and I was 4 seconds slow.
Still, I haven't run since last Saturday and to do the second fastest run in over 2 years isnt something I'm going to beat myself up about.

Strawberries and cream later!

Exciting update.

I thought I had run in 24:41. Turns out I was timed at 24:40.
This means I have now completed the clock! I remember trying 3 or 4 times before and falling 1 or 2 seconds either side of it, and I end up getting it by accident. There's a lesson there.

21st in 21:12 on the 21st. Must be a glitch in the matrix.

Wow, 14 roles 14 times is 196 - that’s impressive. Even if you sometimes do multiple roles in a day you’re probably past 200 volunteer days overall? That’s impressive.

Yep, 256 volunteer days or so at Juniors and Saturday parkrun. Juniors helped me fill in the gap of roles I don’t tend to do on a Saturday
