I will be at Dinton again this week. I’ve offered to pace a club member to 23-ish so that should be fun.

57.5 Degrees of Pain
There was a 600th at Edinburgh on Saturday. There’s only two of them I believe a husband & wife.
The 600th on Saturday was Scotland's 4th at least. I was talking to one of Scotland's 500 club Saturday (not many 500 shirts seen in the north so he stood out in a crowd) and he was filling me in on the numbers.

I've known Laurence and Irene since before parkrun, they've been a bit more dedicated, racking up nearly twice as many runs as I have since they started.

I was just going by the Scottish Parkrun stats website, maybe it hasn’t been updated recently?

It also indicates that eight previous Allbateers attended last Saturday’s inaugural.

The Scottish parkrun website seems to be obsessively updated Ally-C! But it only counts Scottish events, not when we venture furth of Scotland.

But I now know I've run 314 events in Scotland.

Leazes for me this weekend. Hope my cold goes away so I can give it a proper go!

Currently watching the 'Scottish parkruns' YouTube channel from when they did all the Scottish events in 2018. It's really making me want to go and do some more touring north of the border.
