edison Apr 2019 2:20pm, 5 Apr 2019 910 posts	Quote Pin edison what will happen if we wear the old stuff? Honestly?
Gobi Apr 2019 2:23pm, 5 Apr 2019 66,659 posts	Quote Pin Gobi I believe it starts smoking and you self destruct
edison Apr 2019 2:24pm, 5 Apr 2019 911 posts	Quote Pin edison That was my fear. I'll just have to reinforce my unofficial ban on photography
Jovi Runner Apr 2019 2:24pm, 5 Apr 2019 6,024 posts	Quote Pin Jovi Runner I was joking. Tom Williams lives locally so is quite often at our run so I best be good & not wear the old stuff!
MazH Apr 2019 2:55pm, 5 Apr 2019 10,228 posts	Quote Pin MazH Our ED bought each RD at our event their own gilet with their name and Run Director on it. in red. so they can be seen, and I like it. Can't see us sharing the official one.
Jovi Runner Apr 2019 4:13pm, 5 Apr 2019 6,025 posts	Quote Pin Jovi Runner We bought a blue on like the official one but without the branding a we always have 2 Rds each week so each person could wear one.
LindsD Apr 2019 9:28pm, 5 Apr 2019 27,085 posts	Quote Pin LindsD Nick Pearson quite often runs with us so we'd better be good, too. But we do recycle a lot of our old kit. Bunting, bags, dog coats, pacer bibs, etc.
57.5 Degrees of Pain Apr 2019 11:09pm, 5 Apr 2019 4,554 posts	Quote Pin 57.5 Degrees of Pain Most of our events are just glad of getting robust kit that will stand up to the gentle breezes that howl across these parts. Thanks for the Manchester info earlier by the way. Looks like Wythenshawe is the easiest to get to our hotel from so it gets the nod. Now we just need Loganair to be on time!

I bet a lot of these people also drive the couple of miles to their nearest parkrun (rather than walking/running/ getting public transport) - hypocrisy as its finest.
