581 at Heslington. Really enjoyed today's York/Heslington double. Bit of a bottleneck at the start of York but probably no bad thing as it stopped me going off like a mad thing. Still delighted to record my fastest time in 18 months and an age graded PB. There's life in the old legs yet!

Congratulations and well done to anyone and everyone associated with Gedling and Colwick parkruns which both set new records today

We did some tourism from Peterborough today and both events were much enjoyed, although the "lumps" at Gedling were not quite what we are used to on the edge of the Fens!!

Somebody up here did a triple today. Ran Stonehaven, nailed it up the road to complete Hazlehead, then did the beach. All three results currently standing but I’m presuming the third will be removed

Also records at 9.00 in Shipley Park in Heanor, 378 and nearly 100 above the previous best, bolstered by many doubling up with the 10.30 Long Eaton, a record 703 or Beeston, a not quite best of 382. A busy day in the Notts area.
I did very steady 26.40 and 26.59 at Shipley and Beeston respectively, but somewhat weirdly was first V65 at both. Maybe the rest of my generation were still hung over.

Metronome, I was looking at something similar elsewhere but only two count. Ended up only doing 1 as wasn’t feeling a double after 4 hours sleep.

Overall record attendance today across all parkruns?

Roberto- Yes if it was allowed I would have considered trying it (though would have had to dangerously break speed limits which I guess is part of the reason it isn’t!). Praise for this guy on various posts and his 3 results currently still standing. I believe it’s a manual process to remove such results, though they are automatically flagged, which must be a bit of a pain
