It's a good way to get the beer out of the system followed by Mc D's breakfast then we will be ready for the R15.Going Underground wrote:nozzacook wrote:Next Parkrun after that will be London somewhere on the 31st.

Added your new PB, but sad to say the Nonsuch times were adjusted so you lost a second! I lost 11!
Also added Steeevooo who has a PB at Barking.

Any reason given for the adjusted times. It's not that difficult to start then stop a stopwatch.
I have emailed nonesuch to find out why times have been amended.

Funnel duckers presumably! (crossing the line and not taking a token) They cause everyone's result after the 'duck' to be inaccurate, so if Nonsuch can make results more accurate it prevents things like false PBs, which could be impossible to beat.
