Does anybody know if Wetherby parkrun is on this week? There's no one on the roster when I checked, but nothing in the news or on Facebook to say that it isn't, as far as I can see.

I love my apricot. And I love the quality of the t-shirt. I'd wear it for every run if I could, so if there is going to be a delay in getting my 50 shirt (did my 44th last week), then I'll probably buy something else from them soon. I've run in race tech t-shirts for years, but compared to the quality and comfort of my apricot, they are actually pretty crap. Not that I'll throw them out or anything (or the large pile of old cotton race t-shirts in my cupboard....).

I do like the material of the apricot, not so keen on the colour and hate the cut of the ladies shirt, so shapeless and not at all flattering, however I do wear it when we are on tour.

I really like the Tribesport shirts, they fit me really well and are pretty flattering. But we are different shapes, Mrs J! I agree I don't like the apricot colour or all the sponsors' logos.

The parkrun/Tribesports kit is a little bit on the expensive side for stuff thats covered in sponsors logos.
The milestone t-shirts have a supposed price of £16, & the apricot is £25.
I do think they could sell more if they sent out a discount code whenever you reach a milestone.

As for the running jacket, £55!

Some of the profit from the apricot shirts goes to support parkrun, which is (hopefully) why they are more expensive.
