Larkrun = parkrun. (Or maybe not). This sort of typo is why I am glad that WhatsApp now has an edit button to allow corrections for 15mins

I did my 250th at Frimley Lodge parkrun which was my home run at the time. Did my 500th at my new home of Sandhurst but then had a second celebration for my 501st back at Frimley. Both nice celebrations.

If parkrun exists when(if) I reach 500 then I will go to Bushy as that is where I started.

My official PB is on a course that I have never run.

Johnstown became Wexford Racecourse and moved venue and all the results got ported over.

I had similar for a long time as Edinburgh was found to be short and the course was lengthened and is now a wee bitty long. It took me a long time to better my pb set on the short course which was still recognised and I think I even matched it once which was frsustrating

My official parkrun PB was at Northampton in their early days. Their course was short and they gave me the wrong time, about a minute too fast. I might have asked them to delete me, but I was first lady! (Tiny field)

Basingstoke is my official PB , its ranked at about 434 on the fastest courses list!

I knew it wasn't fast when I split faster than it in a 10km
