Always fancied doing one in each of the UK capitals - having done London it feels like a natural progression close to home

mattglen_ - there's the 50 states in USA, think they have a select running club for those that achieve it. 100 marathon club here in the UK used to do a 50 counties, marathons completed in UK and Ireland.. I did my 50 counties several years ago. Don't know if 100MC do that now as I'm no longer a member. |

If anyone is doing Chicago this year, the chap, Richard, who organised the coaches for parkrun last year is doing it again this year, with what sounds like a choice of two parkruns. I won’t put his number on here but if anyone is interested, please message me and I’ll pass his number on. His message is: If anyone is back in Chicago this year for the marathon, or knows of anyone else who is, I’ve just paid for this year’s parkrun coach trip, so can start signing people up now. Cornerstone Lakes or Heritage Harbor this time. |

Belated congrats on the 6 🌟 @Big_G . Aside from the long walk out of the park, a great place to pick it up imho. I’ve a deferred entry for Chicago, hopefully my 6th 🌟 too. |

Macca, I am fairly sure I saw you go past me in the first mile or so on the bridge at NYC. Presuming you have your name on the back.
