I've bought a 100 milestone vest and will probably buy a 250 one if I get there, but can't imagine buying parkrun merch to wear when not running.

I'd never looked at the shop on the parkrun website.

Damn you can buy a lot of random stuff :-)

I have an old school 100 jacket somewhere which is the only older kit I have kept. It's sort of a souvenir of how parkrun was.


I still use my 100 jacket and my 50 and 100 shirts, they are decent kit, I rarely wear my 250 shirt, I don’t like the cut or the fabric. I am not planning on buying any pr kit and definitely not a £50 hoodie.

I find the 250 a far better fit than the 50 and 100 for my shape. Never bought a pr item (my 250th run was two weeks before they stopped being free).

It’s the brand, my 50 & 100 are Addidas.

I think my 250 is Adidas, its a horrid thing to wear

50 and 100 were Nike, they may have been binned during the great life changer of 2014

Tend to wear the 250 - just a habit thing - saves having to decide my a clothing choice 1st thing on a Saturday morning. Fit might not be great, but that is probably more the fault of the body in it rather than the shirt!
