This Easter Saturday we headed to the very lovely Beacon parkrun, Lichfield. It is such a beautiful location and such a wonderful community. Plus I was the tail-walker with my husband. It was the best way to wear my inflatable bunny costume. We then also did post-event close down and I wrote the run report. … Read more
We headed to St Matthew’s Field parkrun for their 15 event. Therefore taking my Wilson Index up to 15 (see parkrun stats and challenges). A very enjoyable and much recommended parkrun.

We headed to Tamworth Castle Grounds parkrun for event 113. This helped me with a number of my parkrun challenges and also wasn’t too far away from home. Another reason I picked it was for it being flat and on path. This week I decided to straight run it, rather than Jeff. Tamworth Castle Grounds, … Read more
Our NENDY was Queenswood Country parkrun and I had waited until event 12 before visiting. This was to help build my Wilson Index.

My husband and I headed to Irchester Country parkrun to start finalising our second parkrun alphabet. It was quite a last minute decision as the one I had originally planned sounded really muddy. Then someone we know through the Boomerangs said that they might head there so it’s where we ended up. Luckily so did … Read more
My husband and I headed to Valentines parkrun on Valentine’s Day. What a romantic way for my husband to become an alphabeteer! We knew it would be a popular one given the name and date so booked a hotel. A few days beforehand someone reversed into my car and therefore we made the decision to … Read more
We headed to Jubilee Bedford parkrun for my husband’s 100th different event. His Cowell. It ticked off so many parkrun challenges including the last letter I needed for the namely challenge. Plus with one alphabet complete it seems sensible to start a second, right? it did cover a lowish number I need towards my Wilson … Read more
We opted for Kilkenny Lane Country parkrun, the one in Oxford not Kilkenny parkrun in Ireland! Not only was this our NENDY (Next Event Not Done Yet) but it was also the next event number I needed for my Wilson Event (11).
