I did my 50 and v25 the same day (as a pacer) . Currently on 196 runs and v74 (a few are sign language support - I only know some parkrun specific phrases though!)

I missed quite a few in the early days as I worked offshore in the summer, and I would rest the day before a race. There was definitely one or two where I couldn’t be bothered. In latter years I’ve only missed due to weather cancellation or being abroad (boo to no French parkruns), until last week when I was too injured to even walk, but I did volunteer

Gobi, quite a lot of the data is in the '5K parkrunner results' app, but not everything (hence my original post). In order to get all the stats you need to put all your results in excel and do some maths. I guess this is a step too far for most (but not for me apparently!) |

Yeah I’m interested but not enough to put the effort in 😂 |

I’ve just got over 500 vols in .. but means I’ve only just got my 250 runs from a 2011 beginning. Hoping to make a silver obsessive for the first time ever this year. |

Good work Jef, v500 is one of my goals. The other good thing you can do with the excel approach is work out when the first possible date you can get to a milestone. My next volunteer milestone is earliest 25/3/25 and my next running one is 6/12/25. Not sure I'll get to v500 that quick and I can't do juniors every week p.s. the easiest way for you to get to silver obsessive in the 5K app is tick the inc. volunteer option

I know CW. But if the volunteering is added it completes almost every challenge there is! Runs only in the 5k app , that’ll keep me at it for another 20 years 😁 |

I’m headed for the curly wurly parkrun in Bristol today. Last of the relatively close local ones to do. All my nendys are close according to the app, but actually on the other side of the Bristol Channel which is a bit annoying
