Re: Tube Challenge parkrun league...
I can see a new challenge coming "The Ten Tors of Parkrun" find ten hilly parkruns and see who get the best time for all ten.
If I don't make it to London on the 14th I will be appearing at Plymvalley as a warm up for the 10k the following day.

Re: Tube Challenge parkrun league...
OK, the spreadsheet is updated, an it was quite a busy day yesterday. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... sp=sharing
There was a semi-rare outing for Ric Brackenbury, and an even rarer one for Marc Gawley, who is still miles faster than anyone else. Having said that dudey got a PB at Whitstable, while Nozza did his best time at Penrose. I managed to go two seconds faster than Ric, despite having not run 5K for a month. I'm happy with that result.
Yesterday's forum day out was at Milton Keynes, where the pecking order was:
1 - Ric - 23:36
2 - tractakid- 26:24
3 - Geoff - 27:58
4 - scrxisi - 28:41
Going Underground stretches his lead in the "most venues" with a run at Alice Holt (wherever that is - can't be arsed to find out).

Re: Tube Challenge parkrun league...
I'm sure the spreadsheet changes things without me knowing about it. It did it with a whole column of figures the other week. There's no way I would have entered the ones I did.
Maybe being an internet version does funny things to it.

Re: Tube Challenge parkrun league...
No run for me, and not even allowed out in the cold, so no volunteering either. So bored at home.
