I got stopwatch bingo today (216 events). I’ve never gamed it and in fact in runs like today I’ve no firm idea of my exact time until I get the results as I have one activity for the longer run (in today’s case, 11 miles including the event) and not a separate activity just for parkrun. It’s totally pointless, but it’s done :)

First position was a lady at Witney this morning for the first time and with a new lady’s course record of 17:35.


Same at Edenbrook - fairly similar time as well I think.

Well done. Is there a decent bus service from near Holyrood that goes out towards Tynecastle? I’ll be in Edinburgh next Friday.

First sub 30 since last April so hopefully this is a move in the right direction.

A 26 from Meadowbank goes to haymarket and a short walk. Otherwise a walk to princes at and you will get buses that go to tynecastle but I am not sure of numbers. Maybe 44
