Son of a Pronator Man
Is that the Cramond page? I wondered why I couldn’t find it.

Could be. It was the local ambassador who was getting stressed about it.

Sorry to sound stereotypical but not all relationships has “the bloke” as the abuser I’m afraid, I’ve known and been made aware of many women who are also home wreckers and abusers over time.

Cessation of the parkrun magazine just announced today. I wonder how much that little vanity project cost.

Our page was suspended overnight, I appealed straight away and got an instant decision that the suspension was valid and the page was then unpublished. I complained through “report a problem” using my own personal account and also the parkrun event one. I think it’s only at this point that any human gets involved. Our page was restored within 2 hours after that.
Loads of events have had the same over the last couple of weeks. I think the fact that they are all very similar has triggered some automatic algorithm thing

Thanks HB. That first sentence describes our situation exactly. I will try the report a problem (or maybe suggest that the ED does it).

Indeed. Domestic abuse covers the gamut, male on female, male on male, female on female, female on male. Been a victim myself. But statistically the vast, vast majority of DA is perpetrated by males against females, and the death rates of those situations is scary.

One RD I spoke to said they had been suspended for impersonation of the parkrun brand!

Anyone been to Durham park run. I’m going on Sat and see that start and finish are in diff locations. Wondering if I can leave a bag somewhere? Ideally would like to have a bottle of water for when I finish before jogging back to my accommodation
