Winded, if you wear MASSIVE HEADPHONES we'll all delight in taking it in turns to shove you into the river.

SK, I hope you can make it.
I would like to know about any free parking though. Perhaps we should meet / start from the pub then we can park there if necessary and also do a bag drop (if needed).

That's if the man's machine is working again. It wasn't at TBC3.

A cake in a milkshake? I'm definitely coming. Even if the committee decides I have to run 10 meters behind
I suspect Mrs F will have ballet and birthday party duties, but I'll find out (could be interesting...she sort of doesn't know she's starring in my blog...)

He will blend anything into a milkshake. Anything. Cakes. Cheese. Cheesecakes. More milk. Mice. You got enemies you want to get rid of? Blend em, then drink em.

I'm going to check out the route(s) tomorrow. One is likely to be round (part of) Bushy Park and one along the Thames. There may be a ferry.
What time do we want to start? Plainly straight after ParkRun will be inconvenient for anyone coming from Wales, while 11:00 will not be great for ParkRunners. I'm thinking we allow ~2 hours for running (1 hour for the 5 miles) and aim to start eating between 12:45 and 13:45. I.e. start the longer run at 10:30-11:00, and the shorter run about an hour later.
Is anyone definitely coming by car? - in which case we could use that as a bag drop (if that isn't presuming on your hospitality) or I could bring ours, in all probability.
For lunch I am hoping we'll be able to eat outside, which means no reservation. But we look like being a smallish number, so we should manage (? wibble ?).
ALL COMMENTS ON THE ABOVE WELCOME.

I'm not going to be there (except in spirit) due to inconvenience of Father in Law's birthday ... oh and my own wedding anniversary... but have you a hostelry in mind Chris?

Not yet. Any recommendations (apart from, or including, the cake milk shake kiosk)?

I suppose it depends on whether you start from Haaaaampton Court and finish there?
Linds is the expert (probably) - she came up trumps for TBC3's pub. The pub (two pubs) opposite the Bushy park HCP entrance look potentially a bit over swanky.
