That's what I was like CW and didn't realise I had all numbers - my friend told me ;-)

Thanks all - - it was a lovely day to do my 250th. Many familiar faces, now usually to be found at other younger parkruns, returned for our 10th anniversary run. And lots of current regulars too.

My next goal is to take less than 10 years for the next 250!

Congratulations Drell!

Yes, I let mine happen naturally, as 57 runs would suggest! We had one guy at Prospect stop at the line and ask the timers to tell him when they were at the correct number of seconds, he then proudly announced that it was his second complete set of bingo numbers. Seemed to be taking the fun out of it to me.

Great work by your MiL XB. I think I'm going to make that a goal for later this year for my 84yr old dad, who is getting his 2nd hip replacement in March :-)

Well done, Drell.

And Gobi, nice work. If the guys is so interested in a 5k time, how about paying for it.
