Christmas parkrunday – parkfaff
Merry Christmas everyone I know there’s one at least one person Sally Watson is waiting in the YouTube she said I she feels tragic sat there waiting can you come in a little bit more can they see you can you squish over I’ve got you this morning I have to get closer to you
That’s fine you’re allowed to do that and um and now I’m going to get cut off if you can let us know with the audio guys I’ve changed the microphone it’s not cardioid which a cardioid is when they just speaking to it’s really clear I’ve made it stereo so it should pick up
From that direction that direction that direction all the directions but not om directional done stereo so I’m not from the back okay so it should hopefully pick up the voices and we’ll see in the comments if people can hear us all okay I don’t want the microphone to get in
Front of my face otherwise I should be like hi how’s it going and then I’ve got like a the rockberry like exactly nudging me out and uh yeah so right right where are we hello merry Christmas everybody this is Aviva so she’s from New York in America she doesn’t come over from New
York but she lives in Worthing now and she’s a Worthing Park on I regularly down there we did live here though H but they don’t know I lived here for a long time well you are you were nationalized you got given a passport and everything
No I mean here like in this oh no you did you lived in serton you did live in seron that’s why we got to know you we didn’t find you by mistaken worthy we got to know you and Alis Mok Williams Ali EV and Ali be watching at home
They’ll be on the TV are yeah so cring knowing don’t be cringed don’t be cringed by it at all whatsoever hello to people so Sally Watson who said that she was waiting to makes you look tragic I don’t think so I think it’s very it’s kind and eager and look I think it’s
Wonderful to have something to look forward to it is oh even if it’s this one even if it is me she’s been sat on my lap it doesn’t like being picked up but we’ll sit her down and she can just settle there we go normally she jumps off if I make lots of
Sound look look the dolly fluff just se you would you like everywhere I’ve got enough of my own my own from from my girl at home from Coco exactly want to give Coco shout out exactly right um Sally Watson not quite the record at bushy I see no
But but but do you know what the par website oh it eventually got there so officially if we’re looking at the results so mcney was first 1529 so it was amazing for me I was like what is it 600 meters in and watching people whip round uh the cricket pitch way down far
Beyond Jack Joe kilip 1649 people running PBS so total number shall we have a look results event history this is all like additional um data extensions in park their official number is 2447 they’ve got down that’s pretty close so there might be a slight discrepancy well there was a discrepancy
Between amount of people had on the timers and the actual tokens given out but not a huge discrepancy is actually pretty damn close so people were good in the funnel and they were pretty good with regards not Crossing out of Crossing line twice and all the additional stuff there’s a few
Discrepancies but that’s pretty darn close um record wise should I have a peak so that is compared to the previous record so yes that’s the second highest ever at bushy yeah 2545 very close was four years ago so people have started to come back obviously they’re more confident about coming back now postco
And yeah 2447 so 98 interesting still like relatively compared to some of the other years’s lower volunteer numbers 56 it’s a lot though it felt that there was a lot of volunteers out there wild how many it takes just to put this mon event on yeah they have 60 to 70 sometimes to
The volunteers very much they’re amazing Marshals and final management just brilliant I mean they’re so unbelievably slick after 19 plus years of doing it yeah 2447 yeah so 98 shy of the record After official count anyway should we go through little bubble this is what you dream of think is my
Conscience you hear that girl get out the room go away quick run away from him uh Jenny R says hi Beverly gout there we go we is here they’re watching down on their nice comfy sofa Shay’s long in away watching away and can’t stay long it’s need to jump in shower soon manage
To get to get up to California Country Park run nice let us know if you have biger Tendencies elsewhere I think Bromley had 900 plus what did the other ones have um audio seems okay to me Danny is a bit louder than a but it’s fine yeah no I’m nearer than Mike yeah
If I have a soft voice I have to project a bit more if you are actually this might be okay like this but if you are um if I switch cardioid you won’t hear of e at all it’s just the way the mic is sat and positioned thank you for the
Feedback by the way regarding the microphone Sally that’s a good feedback but the way the microphone is attached to the table yeah I I can’t move it but I’ll just shout over you as usual as per usual I’m used to that hello hello mom Merry Christmas to you Merry Christmas

You’ve not seen our Facebook lives as well I went live with my phone at bushy and do you want to see what the funnel is like you really got to have a look at it’s triple funnel triple funnel they were lose they were tight to letters they were running out letters at one
Point they were desperate to go through their 26 they may end up having to expand their letter selection beyond the A toz and quad Rupal final would have been a possibility it was but it functioned it did well people kept on moving just an amazing machine
Considering it’s not a a with all the all the chips it’s incredible by the time we got there I I walked with b and Jackie and we kind of went straight through because we were towards the end but it was it felt very slick what was
Your time what was your time today oh I don’t even know actually didn’t even pay attention so worth it just though for that face I need to have a look now how can you not know it’s worth me not knowing because I know it’s irritated you well the results

You want to see I stand there by the Finish final watching the it’s literally put your right hand out token token token token token token token going crazy Daniel Valentine I saw Daniel hello Daniel yeah I saw you at bushy U Merry Christmas all did bushy with the
Masses I did Che you one near the Finish but not sure if you recognize it was me I did I did Daniel sorry yeah so much going on at the time I certainly did recognize you I actually said to Jen that was you as well I did say that was
You we went past but we were coming into the finish so we were pegging it in I was close to my prediction of attendance record you were was completely out I was wrong I thought it’d only be 2,000 tipping 2,000 they 1600 on Saturday two
Days ago and to bump up by 800 plus I mean that’s a third well 33% extra is that right is that the rough maths but to go up by a third and attendance from 1600 is just gigantic to get I didn’t think they were going to get near the
Record as much as they did it’s a lot it’s quite a lot but like you said it’s indicative of of people feeling more comfortable being out and yeah you started to feel it as well when you’re on the start thinking this is big you I was at 25,500 so I’ve been two biggest
Ones and I felt it was very simp what I would love to know though is I think that they should start doing a dog count because there were so many dogs there today and I would love to know like what is the dog record do not register your
Dogs ignore a viava don’t don’t take a bar Cod for it just have a gen like General counts okay just there’s no official number and Factor on that but there were there were many many does many does on top there were loads of Spectators as there always are there
Yeah Spectators in every corner not just the marshals but every corner on the Bushy Park say Spectators are plenty just so many people I actually holled out at one point when they going up chestn Avenue I said what are you lazy Spectators doing why aren’t you taking
Part but they were just happy to be there cheering on their friend their friends and family um but yeah you were right Emma I was I lowall it and I was wrong uh who is with you Danny Mr would you like I’m Danny supervisor and I’m
Just making sure that he stays in line here today and doesn’t offend anybody which is a very tall order I’ve got to say no I never offend anybody you in private different matter entirely Biv gal share your screen friends what screen what the results of the me to see
Share the results of bushy no context B what do you mean share your screen share what screen share of what um what Vias do you want me to show your people your yeah sure I don’t care as long as it doesn’t have any identifying information well no everything that they can access

Tak little bit take time a lot of P it does this as well look at my look at look the computer doesn’t like it also the computer’s a bit old look try to sh right I Thomson hello uh what’s it saying YouTube chat seems to be busted does it
Okay not much in the way of YouTube chat because of that it would explain why we’re getting no Facebook comments um might be a bit flaky on the tinnet as well this computer doesn’t like having multiple tabs going on at the same time anyway when that pops up in the
Corner just there say the internet struggling a little bit can’t type on there Ian Thompson says well I haven’t closed up any comments on the YouTube anybody else if you’re watching on YouTube can you just post a comment I don’t care what it is um if you can just
Post a comment up that’d be much appreciated um Rachel Bentley 52 at Beth and Royal hospital and 900 at Bromley that’s amazing considering how close you guys are to each other that one has 52 and one has 900 such a discrepancy I think the last time B and Jack and I were
Saying I think the last time that I saw you guys was for Rachel Bentley’s at Royal betham Hospital we were having discussion this morning as when as the last time that we saw you and that was it um is the tinnet going a bit squanky
Let me know I’m just going to jump to the bottom uh chat is working on YouTube now there you go let’s scroll back up again where are we uh comments wise I just wanted to make sure because we’re a bit behind the comments if you guys are feeding back if
About the internet I do wish I’m plugged right into the internet come on internet um Merry Christmas here we go what’s it saying hello Merry Christmas one doing that thing where you click and it’s a bit behind Merry Christmas one and all v500 of Victoria sat and 501 at

Night da said that was the reason he couldn’t Park Race fast today too much dinner oh it’s a worthy reason can you tell Dave to stop tagging race on his straa records I will I don’t give kudos I will not if you tag your parkr result
Genuinely if you if I see that race tag on your straa I’m not giving kudos I do it to um Nick row bushy does it all the time Nick if you ever watching this and wonder why I never give you Kudos on your Parr but I do all the other ones
It’s because your tag park run is a race and I refuse I have a standard to uphold I can’t do it I know it gives different data I know it gives different things in terms of what you’re pacing and so on but I can’t bring myself to do it Louise
Wat gunnersbury yes Louise um oh sorry I completely skipped hollly happy Christmas everyone hope you all had a wonderful Park Grand Day heading to the In-laws now but looking forward to catching up later Merry Christmas to you and your fan Louis wats Merry Christmas everyone Gunner bre was great this
Morning lots of fabulous festive outfits and A really lovely atmosphere how many do they have have any idea uh Sally Watson if this decides to want to open got the computer strugg I’m going to take off that I think what is happening is that the computer struggling to load
The results from you noticed that it’s got quicker now that the um computer struggling to load the data from bushy our numbers at hazelhead have never got back to pre-covered levels but today 273 was the highest attendance since pause there you go yeah that’s great considering that bushy had this record
Since the pause as well completed my 250th at my local parkr dickup that’s a thing do you know feminine claps do you know how to you know Mama Clump so Mama Clump from the night professor she does thatc yes so feminine claps we do feminine claps for think people who have
Done things that’s a feminine clap there you go that’s based in that Tony hows Merry Christmas all hope everyone is having a great Park I love the fact that you know exactly that bit that scene from the film of course a absolute classic it’s nice to have someone presenting with me who actually
Gets pop culture references uh yeah Merry Christmas one and all and then Tim gallaga in America good morning just W up to with me now nice here in the US for Christmas Park fix there you go there’s your American where are you where are you Leonia Michigan First Park

13 miles 10 mil sometimes cowork at the same place oh do you go to where he goes oh superb I didn’t know that Elizabeth sham nll CL something Welsh had a lovely morning at Barry Island Park run canceled origal plans because of broken recovery but three consecutive lovely
Local park run days trying to say it go ahead oh I’m going to butcher it it sounds all right it sounds horrible probably three consecutive lovely Local Park Grand days with friends absolutely and more to come we have family in bar do you Alli does I didn’t know that
Yeah I am drinking a mukup with Bailey’s in highly recommended who are you a fan of Bailey some people absolutely hate it some people do not I do have my bailees enormous Bailey but why not that’s exactly my thinking Jenny it’s exactly my thinking um Lee Gilbert I love woring
Parkr is my PB course yeah yes Lee Gilbert big up Waring parkme it’s the fastest I’ve the last time I ran 79 was at 1822 whatever before I start to degrade my PB is are woring but it’s I mean one of the five times I’ve ever run it I I just walked
The one time I the only time I ever ran Park R without having to walk was at Worthing and that was my PB there you go very good yeah yeah last time I R six minute miles was back then way back wor yeah come out of the blue but um yeah
Long way from my PB otherwise that was a bushy many years ago 2009 Woodley Park R happy Christmas everyone happy Christmas to Woodley parkrun hello Linda busy hello Linda happy Christmas you’re gonna love all the cat pictures look cat P cat picture cat jumpers all sorts cat little
Dolly being stroked on my lap happy Christmas Danny and everyone isn’t Christmas Day Park the best thing ever yes yes it really is Cons considering that you were a bit of a reluctant Park runner at first I was a reluctant Park Runner because when I first came to park
Run Park run was very much park run there was not people walking at that time so I would just come and support and sit in the sidelines dis grun told that I couldn’t do it but now for years many years for many years close to we got a good point to
Make and I want people to make sure they can see it what was what’s the point you’d like me to make about no in terms of the fact that you um have felt more comfortable in coming to park now that they’ve now it’s been a lot of years
Since since it’s changed and it’s been a lot more welcoming to to walkers for many years now and it’s it’s made all the difference and you know I’m constantly trying to so many people say to me oh I don’t run I can’t do it I’m
Like I don’t run and I do it every week and it’s I look so forward to it never would I ever thought and now when I miss it I hate it I hate missing it so if you were somewhere and on Christmas day and you couldn’t make Park R would you be
Bothered by it obviously yeah obvious at home as in like not if you’re somewhere really fancy in in a wonderful Hotel fire field but on a general day you have to go there now you’re compelled to go I am I am and I’ve gone when Ally I I
Would go and watch my husband alist if Ally was Ill would you still go I go now I go I’ve had a couple where I’ve gone on my own when he was in when he was in the Lake District a few weeks ago uh with his boyfriends I went on my own and
It was like I can’t even I was like who am I I can’t believe it but that’s the that’s the magic and the power of park run you sound like a right convert you’re’ being yeah you’re part of the cult now you’re one of us of us because
Of the the big old cult sat here right now we were in in a temp’s path park on the other day and one of my best friends from New York who lives here now with her husband in in Greenwich in Lon and it was her first park run she
Came out and she met us and it was her first park run and she said that her husband told her he said I hear some people are really obsessed with park run and I was like these are my friends welcome welcome to us would you care to join up to Scientology while
You’re at it too I’m just so of everybody who gets up every week and does us it’s it’s a beautiful thing there you go Testament Testament to it all many people will be F and clapping and agreeing Christmas bananas I don’t know what that refers to sometimes we get no context comments
Either they replying to someone else or there’s no context and I don’t know sometimes sometimes you’ll get random comments like that it may have been something I said about 10 minutes ago because time we get to the comments we’re trying to play catch up Vanessa
Beadsworth welome oh wow a one to go to for Christmas day willc Junes was just as awesome as you and Nick said it would be me and Mr be had the absolute bestest of Christmas Park runs which one would you recommend next oh where is welcome Junes welome
Junes is on Northwest St Coast okay big Old Bay big old wam Bay it is one of the toughest Park runs it’s a lot of it is on uh the beach and then the Sandy Junes and um gosh park run to recommend next you’ve Ted a little bit where would you
Say to go to does it need to be around that area you can go anywhere Vanessa has the magical helicopter can take her anywhere in the UK well if you like ones that are like Sandy and dunes and whatnot we went again a word I don’t
Know why I’m choosing one that I can’t pronounce I was gonna say p half P yeah that one’s beautiful although when went did it’s little but when we went it got canceled because of the weather but Alli still ran it and it was beautiful so definitely that one or if you’re in that
Area uh oh gosh what’s the one an angle see um I can’t remember New York New York New York um have a look have a look on the 5K app have you got the 5K app on your pH I do but I don’t have my phone would you like to look on
Here so have a look while you look at that I’ll go through the comments and find you on here you know what to deal you just want to shut me up no I don’t I need to get through the comments I just know that’s not true uh right ignore all
The Reds I’m just think up there so which one would you recommend next for New Forest that was the one it’s beautiful um uh it’s hard for me to say ah KY where would I recommend willome um dlon if you’ve not been to delston Vanessa go to delston please I know wi L
Forest is meant to be I’m putting you toward tough ones but with toughness comes with great toughness comes great Beauty it does it simply does because you get views you get height and the toughest one I think I did was Bine Bine down yeah beautiful views but it was two
And a half up two and a half down no 1.25 up 1.25 down twice yeah and it’s all um it’s a really good question Vanessa really good because I that would make me imply that I’m favoring particular ones over another if you’ve not been to Delon let us know definitely go toward Delon
If you if you can Nigel is watching hello oh hello hi Nigel no h hello hello Nigel hello hello Arthur teach me how to Nigel hello Nigel or five more days until he’s retired oh can’t wait days can’t do it AO n all right he went to uh St Helens
He’s done he’s well into his parkring now he absolutely loves it as well retired he’s gonna be Park R in all the year all the years I should say been doing every week Nigel on retirement Penny the and teasing there were 393 at South C that’s Portsmouth lucky with the
Weather as no rain yeah we did get away with it B weather FES did their job this year uh chat’s working for you we jumped ahead to this all fine on YouTube Chris Hood um there you go I asked about comments P pebcak problem exists between keyboard and chair problem exists between key
It’s a technical thing where like it people go and it’s very technical but it’s it’s a technical thing for it people isn’t it where when you go and when I’ve got something wrong with my computer they will go along and when they file what the job was they have
Acronyms and a lot of it will be the problem exists between basically without saying it’s a person Bally is an actual it’s not a dny thing it’s a it’s a no there’s a few other acronyms aren’t there out there in terms of the different companies do different things
But it’s basically imp it’s saying it’s not the technical issue it’s the person unable to do it but in a polite way okay got it it’s like an in thing if there are any other ones like that do put in the comments other ones that you know um
278 at list Park in Bradford because it’s not Bradford Park R it’s called list Park they changed his name so make it a bit more apparent 278 Bradford where I did my 500 I went up there especially for I went especially for that to go see Linda and Alan griffi uh
Merry Christmas to all says Penny absolutely 48 at East Brighton and over not wow that’s a lot we did Preston par with you no not me no we oh wait no we didn’t we did a different one in Brighton with you on New Year’s maybe not New Years or maybe it was
Christmas I don’t know sometime this year I’m sure we did anyway this year no not this year not this year another time you’re like Steve with the memory uh H hope prom I’ve not done with you bright and hope I’ve not done with you um I
Swear it was Bev was there Bev if I may be B but not I may not have been there may well have been with Bev I may not have been you there yeah now I would have been touring fareld the one that we did where we did a double have you seen
My map have you seen my map have you seen my map but that’s all the that’s the my nearest events I’ve got to get to now which which color ignoring the color but look look at all of the England so all the ones that are missing
Look wait so this is these I’ve not been to but these are all oh so whether it’s red orange ignore the red because that’s cancellation for Christmas and New Year okay but all of those are on that you haven’t done the on I haven’t done look
Where it goes to Cardiff it’s a very beond bingh that’s incredible look I’m more I mean I I always look at you and think how many I know you’ve done and to see that there’s still so many how exciting is that though to think there’s so many yet to discover I’m edging
Toward halfway through that’s incred I think there’s about 800 in the UK I think Paul Fielding 600 plus so it is in theory possible to be able to do all the UK ones if they don’t come rapidly and they are starting to plateau in terms of
How much they exist so with enough time and enough years if Park really starts the plateau to the point where there aren’t many starting every week or so that you will be able to at one point there will be somebody who’ll have done all the ones in the UK obviously going
To have certain cancellations come and go so um yeah potentially possible to a park near you me yeah if you’re 100 miles away for is 100 miles now at this point minimum my nearest event is 100 miles away um Ali make look at your hubby Ali M
Williams what time are we doing laps for cats that’s we’ve got a cat in the lap right here he always does this referential thing basically it was a little in joke between us and no one knows what it means the context is missing for everybody Ali you are the
One who made it up yeah but no one else watching this knows what we’re on about oh okay yeah but we don’t know what the banana thing was about this is true this is true is there any way to get an accurate Park on time on there again no context comment don’t
Know it could be replying to someone 52 thank you Hannah M head 502 at gunnersbury that’s a cracking number as well everyone want’s coming out for Christmas it’s going to be I’m going to beat that drum get out to park one on Christmas day you can’t beat it it
Just it do you know when people say we’re not going to do it because we’re going to have family time and we want to stay at home and it’s a day to be at home and that’s everyone’s prerogative but it’s still hard because you’re thinking but you’d love it you know
You’d love it you do it you can have your family there with you it’s not exclusive for that some people may not want to get up I appreciate that drag them down the most wonderful way if I feel this way anybody can feel this way because I
Used to be such a grinch about it yeah we’ve converted you with enough pressure em sha show we both tag stra as that’s inflamat can you read that we both tag st’s race not because it’s a race but so our time and splits a spot
On yeah I I know the accuracy in terms of the GPS date and what it shows straa could I would love straa to create a parkr tag I would love it 2020 24 is your year straa did have a connection with parkon at some point parkon Global
But then they don’t have it anymore if enough people have enough Park Runners campaign for it maybe if I could do on a Saturday lead the chart where I can just find the tag and only see Park runs as well I love going through in Saturday
And after a bit of time it’s too much for me to go through if I’m driving somewhere or coming back from somewhere then I can’t go through go through everything but I would love to be able to see on my friends list that I’ve done
A park run not to see the 1K warm-ups and the little walks and the generic runs I’d love to be able to filter it to see Park runs if you could do that tag that would be one of my dreams to come I think if enough Park Runners got
Together and started campaigning for it to sta hashtag hashtag um make Park a tag make Park make Park think you’re gonna go too big no make Parker on the straa tag but it’s too too long make no I’m not gonna do that uh straa tag hashtag I’m not very good at coming up
Something quite quick and wi I’ll come up with something thank you um wats 502 at gun once again Merry Christmas to you Tony Lidell hello Merry Christmas to you fell Lara sari alen 230 at grish Park r on the creepy number 666 okay people not fasing too much about the old Nelson 666
And 777 is the thing we won’t go into that grenage parkr that isn’t in grenage is it not not really no not officially it would definitely not be called grenage nowadays um I forgotten the name of the party but it isn’t it isn’t grenage though in London right sort of
Yeah it’s one of the very oldest ones and uh yeah it was like swind and got his name changed lots of events they never conceived that they would have more than one in a town or a city so they got called conventionally that greenage isn’t really grenage Park R by
Rights and as you’d conventionally know because you think imagine grenny do you imagine the bit by the temps and C S and everything it’s not not there um I forgotten the name of the park and it’s a long time since I’ve been there begins with a is that right forgotten sorry um
Laa let us know that sounds like an awesome idea no no I again what oh there’s probably St it’s stra thing the stra thing defitely I think he’s replying to Emma’s thing uh clay and Artic jumping on late did hackworth Park r a new venue for me there you go
Another one to your tourist list I do the same oh there we go oh CLA you’d never get a Kudos of me either tagging it as a race Tok must have been 800ish at chel gee whiz on that course well the usual numbers 400 already feels very
Crowded yeah I mean I won’t lie to you bushy is crowded and is very crowded if you don’t like claustrophobic big events you may want to avoid it um the start is chaotic most people can hear the Run brief um and yeah you can get very very
Tight you feel for tiny little dogs there’s a potential for people to be knocked over stumbled over um yeah if you’ve got to go to Bushy with expectations it’s going to be very compressed and tight but there are other parkr options available if you can aim
For those like for example if you want to go Bromley 900 you can go to Beth and Roy and have 50 you can go to Bushy 2,400 or you can go to Al de Park which is on the side the lq moves quite quick
The lq does um move very it does the L was very quick and actually you know honest with it the funnel moved really quickly as well it did I was very impressed as to how fast it was they were absolutely on form today uh 520 Rushmore running ugly Budgy singlet no
Booze as I over to my sisters at 2m. yes do not drink and drive absolutely Jo Johan dven heg Amar ruler rules is thaty rules Amara just what is Amara is Amara a drink oh I don’t know but I just am is that the South afrian it is isn’t

Sprouts yes or no Sprout gate it’s not even Sprout gate everyone who likes him is wrong it’s not objective um sorry it’s not subjective it’s an objective fact that bu of sprouts taste like little mud fromen to Earth mud Parcels has anyone looked at the stats for extra
EV being run on Christmas and news day seem way down this uh not down I wouldn’t say down I think a lot of parkr have had huge turnouts and obviously there’s a difference between having more events activated and then ones that actually do choose to go ahead Oh you mean in terms
Of the numbers for events that have chosen to go ahead this year I yeah I think you’re right I think there there seems to be a I don’t know what it is or why it is but some events have chosen not to run on Christmas and New Year’s
As much as in the past I don’t know quite what’s caused that and it may completely change it varies from year to year he won’t give up your hobby merry catmas he’s loving this and he’s on his on his phone he’s sat on the shes long down there thanks typing away love you
Susie banon sorry I’m late it’s all going wrong in the kitchen don’t worry yeah don’t burn anything on our behalf don’t burn your Foods Jana goack saw you earlier bushy Merry Christmas Danny and all Merry Christmas to you Jana who’s obsessed with trying to give me a hug I
Just give her fist bumps I remember the first day I decided to hold Bradford parkr on Christmas day wow I honestly thought nobody would come how wrong was I hugely wrong hugely wrong be joest with it I mean it’s it’s from great what it what they say with acorns from small
Acorns Mighty Oaks do grow or something along the lines if you look at bushy’s attendance way back when it began just absolutely tiny the whole concept of it it was unusual the media were like what’s this thing people are doing some running and it happened at bushy and
Just bush then it expanded a little bit and now how many thousands of people have run on Christmas day they would would never have done 20 years ago never in a million years 20 years ago and now it’s completely changed a shiting culture and it’s happening in Australia
Too it’s happening in New Zealand as well it’s happening in Ireland it’s has a massive social impact clay ntic lovely to see other Park Runners on Christmas Day I can’t imagine help I BR up I can’t imagine Christmas day without parkr now I agree I will go to I think I’ll keep
Going to Bushy for as long as I can um merry Christmas say Ruth Perkins Merry Christmas to you by the way I wish you all could see Dolly’s face right now really content being all struck very happy cat she’s she’s got Daddy lap that’s why Linda buy I remember the
First time we held it penga that’s in New Zealand and our run director well we’ not get enough volunteers but our community loves it it’s the best day yeah and you can always bring your fam along I mean like moms and dads is who don’t want to go around are perfect
Marshals it’s okay they can walk I think people need to know that they can walk it they can walk it and absolutely all just be a marshall if necessary exactly make sure the funel always got to be conscious of the funnel is not being taken down too soon either I’m always conscious of
That Happ you my son came to parkr and the cafe is open and really busy um I’m I would expect there that would be a locally owned Cafe and I expect they’ll be very happy to have the additional money even if they are working on Christmas morning um Merry
Christmas to all 294 at Perth Great Park run yeah I’d love to see the numbers and figures I can’t wait to see the stats and the figures when they all come out um well Elliot will bring some together Ian rutson actually Ian rutson worth watching on Twitter I expect he will put
A DAT piece of data out at some point if you’re watching Ian or someone’s in touch with Ian or I could always message him myself um would love to know what the attendance I’m sure it go across their social media something to very much something to celebrate uh New
Forest Park run no context comment oh oh I need to see Dolly please do I Disturb any words for the people look at your Flo her face is not so happy now no because I’ve Disturbed her the poor little thing there you go hopefully that that will keep you happy um right 5K app not updated yet is there a known issue
Today um I don’t think so it may update at some point there’s a lot of data being done it’s Christmas Day yeah and um I’m sure Ian is GNA have to you know what is going to be all the technical people are going to have to there’s
Going to be incidents that have happened so there’re going to be some critical incident support Lin have actually run through Park like who there’s three there’s three apps and uh the when the first two originally started they well they still do they take the data off of the server and they
Hit and ping the server so they do strain it but parron have I’ve not officially said but it’s they’re happy for the apps to exist because it fills a hole that they don’t cover so there’s no point them telling them stop it whether it’s clearly successful it clearly does a job it
Provides a resource for many people I obviously favor the 5K app more than I do the other two uh 5K app I think is the preferred one is favored in terms of its user interface and um so whilst they get the data off it I think it provides
More for parkr than what it does in terms of server usage and I’m I’m sure parkr will come to some sort of agreement anything newra Forest oh recommendations yeah recommendations trying to figure it out said newra and then a couple newra Forest oh the one that you were saying they were shouting
At you they heard you 10 minutes AG go going no forest forest um Land End parkon yes Eden yes very well this is why it should be the Amore show absolutely agree lend I’ve not done but been to lanen but not done the park R there it wasn’t there when I
Went there an Ean project I’ve not been to and would like to go and do so too very good point I’m a bit nerdy I want to go to Albert in mbor because because it’s an original time trial I’d favor that if I could go somewhere and I will
Do hopefully this year uh look there we go Juliet cville fan y New Forest and angle Saturday definitely recommend they’re all great but that one is very beautiful D is amazing lovely course there are very many Park RS out there that have beauty within and um what’s he
Saying Ali Alli saying come along going live we want our we want our dinner what’s he saying leave us alone Ally you’re hungry or something you’re sending photographs Ally why you disturbing he’s getting he’s getting East Brighton in reference to via’s com oh when we were together
Where we ran East Brighton we ran together is that what you’re saying oh and he sent us a picture of us is this a bit meta like is that the right use of the word yeah it is meta yeah it is my christas present from The Reluctant tourist uh I’m assuming reluctant
Tourist is your hubby I don’t really know for definite I will I will assume that has the camera gone blurry do it need to refocus yeah it does um wait we both went like a fast car like merry mmas what was that sorry what you doing
With the car we both went back at the same time it’s like a new speed accelerating right uh 40 minutes we’ll do it for five more minutes shall we and people want to go and watch other things and eat Christmas dinner uh Egan project is one of our most memorable courses fun
Free entry to Egan project afterwards absolutely yeah that on the Todo list amongst many others you know what I’ll end up being my nered in due course by the time I’m getting down that way Merry Christmas everyone mid cooking a nice D Bar 153 at catford this morning that’s
Perfect says CLA Griff catford cat Vegas all the cats wind L is beautiful 506 at Rushmore getting ready for a flight to Poland yeah boxing day parp so we discussed this last year didn’t we we haven’t done it this year yeah maybe next year you happy you willing yeah as
Long as it’s not crazy expensive yeah no I think there were flights for 150 from wiiz from Lon um the ones from Heath are a bit more expensive so if you get them early obviously be a lot cheaper um it’s something I would like to do into war we
Like a bit of international touring War tour is cheap would like to do that um yeah so have fun have fun in Poland let us know where you’re going krie I’m assuming one of the four in Warsaw a little bit envious of you um but there are many more years to come so
Um yeah yeah and I’m sure in due course my favorite is picnic oh there you go the the acronyms problem in chair not a computer yeah that’s great I love that there you go Tony Liddell great lovely run at Great Sultans this morning there wasn’t the mud we were expecting yeah
There some of the ground has dried out my friend Richie ran at St Helen too after a year away from park hopefully he’ll realize what he’s been missing there you go I’ve been to some Helen as well sometimes when you take that break it’s just hard to get back into it and
It’s just going to that first one again right yeah you into it yeah yeah just that one little prompt id1 I don’t get it idiot [Laughter] oh how ironic how ironic is that finishes a BL links today 506 the second highest ever attendance oh superb um
Wonder if Danny has done any in the Northeast no there’s two regions I’ve not done in the UK Northern Ireland and I have not done Northeast officially I’ve been to darham and I’ve um yeah no I’ve not done a park run in the Northeast that’s the one reason I need
To do and like say if I’m up that way I will be line for Albert um Gates said broke the attendance record uh Danny knows about the Woodly banana I’m sure is that wward is dressing up like a banana loving the live it’s greatly improved today somehow yeah with Dolly
Dolly’s with on my lap that’s what it is thanks and then you got someone on the side here I wonder why I’m kidding I’m thank you for having me on by the way thank you for joining it’s nice to have an alternative point of view because because thank you for welcoming me on
Here everybody I’m grateful I think you’ve also got the social media confidence to do this sort of thing as well so that’s why if you had Alie here have no shame no shame but also if we had allly here Alie would sit here going laps for cats and that’s all he’d say
And he would make no other I’m just not really sure I was told I could provide R some sass but I don’t know like how far I can go it’s too nice it’s too nice to be sassy today isn’t it it’s too too good of Christmas day no sass required
No I feel like I’m trying to I need to try and wind you up a little bit and then make you be sassy but I don’t you don’t need oh I’m I’m trying to hold it back because I don’t know how go sass go sass as you want I don’t know you’ve got
You’ve got about two or three minutes before we um desas or your sass opportunity goes and you have to desas and we have to go in and eat Rising Sun is my favorite but they weren’t doing today on New Year’s Rising Sun it’s many events I know of and hear about and just
Would love to attend one day apparently you can do timekeeping on your phone and play Christmas music to a p and VI talk about all I want for Christmas Stephen why why would you do this why would you do this on Christmas day you won’t seeing the other live I
Detailed as to why we’re not going to promote music at Park I explained why um yes that’s great um I guess you don’t want that for Christmas orever in a nutshell what I said the other day I’m not averse to music it’s just that there there’s a policy there’s
A policy for a reason and there’s also a legal matter and so I know it happens I’m not going to pretend it doesn’t happen but I’m not going to endorse or promote it I think Stephen knows that and I think Steph is trying to wind me up for Christmas day thank you Stephen
Um there you go he’s doing all the Sass for us I always tag straa as a race oh you as well tag them as a race and then tag Danny because everyone’s gonna tag race everyone’s gonna say I love Russell Sprout everyone’s just against me isn’t it everyone’s against me the world’s
Against me Vanessa Borth haven’t been to D yep there you go please Vanessa go to DST would we have done and love New Forest D becomes the next big tourism then thank you you will absolutely love it you catch it on a cracking summer or spring day sun Sunny summers day yeah
You’re going to be in love with it um hashtag stra parkr um yeah well we can work with it it’s work in progress but everyone’s insisting on the parkon tag for St would mean the time is accurate too so we don’t need to tag as a race uh yeah you anything that works
Just I won’t give you Kudos I just simply what I again I die on many Hills I will die on the hill the brussel sprouts tast that’s too sassy I I I I die I morbid on Christmas day I die in the hill that those Parcels of mud that are
Disgusting just foul and I’m never goingon to give you Kudos if you do R and you know what the worst thing about stra is sometimes I accidentally go and I tag and I go Kudos Kudos boom and I hit one I’m like then I see the race tag
And you cannot undo Kudos you can’t uncos people I wish I would take back my Kudos if I could but it’s a very very hard life to live grenny would have been in Old Kent yeah it would have been yeah absolutely or chesington in Old SAR by
Right we only just in greater London due to either side we’ve got epom and albd and they didn’t want to go into greater London they wanted to have greater London within the M25 funnily enough um 171 eastley hell Avery Hill in inadvertent in hashtag Superior mind right let’s whip through the
Comments and then we’re going to say Tatar goodbye Abby Woods question mark would oh I’ve not been I have tag and park RAC I can see what is wrong with a lot of you stra parkr tag we I’m just we’re gonna do it we’ll make a big thing we’re
Gonna come up with something and and and share it with yall uh gr is my Ned Susan cart TR just joined Merry Christmas Merry Christmas Susan we have grish is my New Year’s Day destination Lara uh is Avery thank you I knew it began with an
A Avery Hill Park wish it would change I need an a for name challenge so there you go it would be Avery Hill Park park run Avery Hill Park run and then it would might have the suffix of granite well it wouldn’t have the suffix Albert whatever is it in Melbourne Albert
Albert up in midb and Albert in Melbourne there’s two there’s two Albert Parks okay but no I want Albert in midb um what’s this K Eastwood again K’s just as bad as he in terms of Comedy I say bad they just I love the fact that
They love to chat and engage cool Swan if a lovely Spirit from Ireland often Ms 2m. for a goose as she is allergic to turkey uh okay me wa you were you’re vegan I’m say I’m allergic to Turkey because vegan I’m vegetarian Ali Al Alli won’t eat turkey really and
B is vegan as well so we have a very low meat yes the Sprouts what Sprouts sake sprouts for straa no that the hashtag catch up later have a great thanks branka let us know if you like Sprouts or not at the moment I’m not medic to PO in the St Nick of
Time opening presents now is oh again people Haven yep enjoy your Meats I’m not going to endorse it sorry just because the way I am I’m not say you can eat whatever you want but yeah I’m not a big fan of myself personally obvious for obvious reasons Sprouts are the Bogies of the
Devil damn right but what if you like to eat your Bogies then they’re good true depend yeah but Devil’s Bogies Devil’s Bogies be good they’re not your own they’re the they’re the Devils true you put on Christmas dinner or not controversial yes I think if the Christmas dinner is fundamentally just a
Slightly variated roast Sunday roast dinner yes sure why not okay uh Sprouts a curry do you know what any food oh I don’t know if I feel better it in a curry because then they make it a bit mushy but you know what it’s so subjective I will open into trying it
Any food that’s cooked nice you can have cabbage can be gross or cabbage can taste fantastic now a lot of people associate cabbage from school dinners where it’s just basically boiled and gross and sloppy and catch with those little metal tins and then duck dished out with those little metal forks gr T
Here it is but that’s how Christmas how School din were but cabbage if Cook correctly professionally if you went to somewhere like a michan restaurant and they sered you cabbage it wouldn’t taste the same so it depends on how it’s cooked um you’re saying that Bev’s
Sprouts are not M level that’s I’m not what I’m saying he’s saying that your Sprouts are not only exception I think he should just get more of them the exception to this is there’s nothing you can do with Sprouts to make them toast have you ever had a roasted m a maple
Roasted Sprout where they’re a little bit crispy and a little bit salty and Maple and you can chef’s kiss you can crisp him to the point of burning away and disappearing for all I care I do not he’s like you can chef’s kiss my ARS hopefully there’s no kids
Saying that’s the first wear M Matt Garner you’re wrong Sprouts are good I’ve I got to poop off too much information sprouts for the got to clear out before the big event and then put more Sprouts in have some more poops off later 96 at armley hello
Bly Peters roted to keep out the mud much more my kind of thing yeah I can certainly see my people like the little diddy ones I’m a big fan of Diddy events as well I mean half the people I didn’t see everybody uh just managed to catch
Psh and Joe psh is very grumpus he’s grumpus I expect he’s very grumpers with me because I say certain things he doesn’t want to hear or see about parkr stuff I um that’s fine but I saw Jo spoke to Joe and the cockrums loveely to see those guys saw many people but there
Still I look at the results and see m a load of people I would have loved to have seen and missed K C A Runners no more Sprouts t-shirt was well admired at ruthin this morning damn right mom was amazing cream of Brussels sprouts so
Again it all depends on how you cook it do sounds really really good can I get the recipe for because that sounds really good and I’m a fussy eat it right probably volunteers causing some Park to go ahead this year I just some B choosing not to do it I totally get why
Sometimes they want to have breaks and so again it’s depends um Town more couldn’t get enough volunteers to put an event on yeah it’s all circumstantial geographically circumstantial I wonder if few events in New Year Park this year due to being so close to previous Saturday events yeah potentially there
Is an impact as to how close they are OB Saturday Sunday was last year now it’s Saturday Monday next year the leap year will be Saturday Wednesday so you’re going to have it spaced out so it might uh give people the impetus to put them on as opposed to having it so close
Together there’s a big turnaround things like bibs if they get wet having to reorganize to the tokens of volunteer stuff it’s a lot to do um Sally Watson cooked appropriately oh blind me I do like Sprouts but the best bit is roast tties and gravy absolutely tatties is
That what you call potatoes potatoes basically certain parts of the country yeah um no no one no one’s cooking boobies for Christmas dinner yes to bruss Sprouts Danny and his sister will not eat them ever since they were little darn right oh I thought that she was I
Didn’t realize it was your mom and I thought someone thought that I was sister no sorry oh but you’re kind of like a brother to me you’re like the one that winds you up yeah winds you up and really annoys you um yester brought spouts for my mom wrong Danny your
Sister will not eat them damn right because even when he was little he didn’t like them a all right let’s go very shortly only one a in the whole London few G options yeah only a few you got to find that g spot in London Lara somewhere uh what fantastic is a cafe
Still searching for it what me to turn it up so what’s fantastic is the CAF of supporting Christmas Day Park too absolutely it’s a win-win symbiotic isn’t it support parkon and they get some money out of it absolutely I’m always a big fan of local cafes getting
Um what’s the word I was about to say remunerated la Lara says alip p is great and doable on public transport isn’t it the dark at Ali pal right now potentially yes it will be that’s what they have it obsessed I really want to go see it dolly boops dolly boops yay
Dolly happy Christmas to my mom uh back we are a lot to go through we’re going to whip through Park on websites are down for a while which affected the apps yep there’s three A’s needed everyone’s talking about the alphabet stuff Merry Christmas to Dolly she really is
Gorgeous isn’t she so sweet and then in Thompson 5K out takes a while to pick up special day same for German Unity day uh The Reluctant tourist is indeed my hobby K I think each park run has its own charm it’s so difficult to recommend but if it’s some volunteers or senior or
Something else it’s your oyster yeah again there’s so many elements to as I’ve said in the past you could turn up to the most beautiful part run in the world and if the RoR may be having a bad day or you may stumble upon a a
Volunteer who might be a bit grumpy and your first interaction with them is a first impression Y and that’s no fair reflection on the event as a whole but it can impact your perspective on it so I’ve definitely been to plenty where they’re comparatively less aesthetically
Pleasing and I still have the best best time so you know it’s it’s depending new where I went on Saturday it’s like you look at their course and go oh it’s not particular inspiring but the team were fantastic a lovely small community with just really hyper Pleasant people yeah
So it depends on what you value or what you want which I think people just want to have a nice experience I mean aesthtics are a cherry on top of the of the cake exactly um Sandra roads we need to actually cook yeah go and start do
Cooking we need to go and eat because we’re gonna get Ali’s GNA come and knock on the door say wait come and eat I’m hungry but she’s popping off now she’s not pooping off now says Ruth no pooping off thank you I think one of the Zeds in
Wara we’re originally going to L Lublin but the hotel here wasn’t accommodating to the late arrival of the flight will feedback to you have fun in Warsaw absolutely have fun we cheered on a 94 year-old doing her first park run at folks and park that’s lovely That’s so
Exciting that’s awesome um Phil Benham isn’t awesome what is wrong with all of you team Sprouts this is why they sell I guess it has to be a market for them otherwise they wouldn’t sell them if people didn’t like them generally need to keep an eye on the oven so Merry
Christmas yeah everyone’s going to go do their dinners we’re going to do this thing too Merry Christmas everyone enjoy the rest of the day especially the ghost oh yes ghost Christmas special do you watch ghosts I love ghosts oh such a good show been watch you gonna watch
With us or go home before what time is it on at sevenish if we’re still here then yes if not then we’ll watch it home can we watch it together all right sprouts and Martian brains thank you very much EMA oh there we go today Martian brains then they’re Superior
Because Martian brains are probably Superior to ours depends it depends there might be a d Martian be says Sprouts C vegan bacon B girl again you can’t polish turd I’m afraid uh defo yes God under roads and Yorkshire puts some Christmas dinner eating brussel sprouts like warming down in a cool down t-shirt
