V v v v excited to have tickets to see @kermodemovie.bsky.social in Faversham next month! Tinkety tonk old fruit!

Trying some basic health hacking and have a CGM to try. This is what a Costa medium latte plus “wholmeal” oats does. Wondering just how far this sugar spike is headed 🫣

When you’re having to do flooring but live with a “vintage and collectibles” dealer….

#MerchMonday over on shop.parkrun.com. Even with the extra volunteer 10% I think I must be single-handedly keeping #parkrun afloat 😭

This is HUGE!

Grandson no.1 celebrating 25th time volunteering at #parkrun 👏

My first time watching ice hockey. Sadly Invicta Dynamos lost but….

Oh well… meant to post this lovely AI generated HNY image yesterday and then forgot. So especially to everyone in #parkrun land here’s to you. You may run long and injury free in 2026 🖖

It’s Sunday and not in Kent, which means it’s must be Bodmin Junior #parkrun

Twixmas run at the @edenproject.bsky.social #parkrun with our nephew and his betrothed.

A Christmas Eve cycle to Padstow but, shock-horror the Cherry Trees cafe was closed for the holiday 😭 ..and blimey Charlie that was a “bracing” wind 🥶 Tomorrow it’s Christmas Day #parkrun at Trelissick ❤️🌳🏃‍♂️

Go me! Raising money for parkrun! 2026vitalitylondon10000.enthuse.com/pf/darran-po...

Volunteer occasion no. 601 at a very soggy Manor Park junior #parkrun

Love this lot 😍

At a wedding in Ireland yesterday and have to say…. Totally nailed it.

Cold, wet and happy at Leybourne Lakes this morning.

BBC staff have now been banned from repeating the description of Donald Trump excised from Rutger’s Reith lecture. Makes his warning here all the more chilling. youtu.be/9UlYdocG5Bs

Another super weekend of #parkrun although had to bring out the heavy duty wet weather gear on Sunday.

Sunday funday tailwalking with grandson no.1 at Manor Park junior #parkrun.

But lo…as if by magic this pops up 🤩

How long until the days start getting longer again? 😩

A stark and rather prescient warning from history. Also a stunningly good film. www.theguardian.com/film/2025/no...

Those dreaded words from the physio… “you’ll have to stop running for a bit” 😭

Spooky marshalling at Manor Park Junior parkrun this morning. Think I nailed the brief 😱

Fantastic morning at #parkrun to celebrate Octogenarian Brian’s 300th event.

OK going to admit it, rather like this photo. I suppose 1 out of 20 isnt bad 🤔

Me and “the wee lad”. Just for once had a plan and stuck to it. Not too gruesome and perfect weather with the sun now just starting to warm things up in London

On this #WorldMentalHealthDay look what just dropped into my inbox... Thank you #parkrun for EVERYTHING ❤️🌳🏃‍♂️

Massive thanks to Paul and Jo for coming up to Kent to help celebrate @leybournelakespkrn.bsky.social birthday and to speak at my little mini conference for #parkrun event directors.

Just another normal morning at #parkrun

This is pure heaven. Warm Padstow sunshine and Cherrytrees coffee

What a day…. Super visit to Chatham Historic Dockyard climbing in and out of submarines and the like with grandkids then off to see Jaws at the cinema with my son. Neither of us have seen it on the big screen and still totally epic in every way.

May the gods of parkrun be with you. Always.

Hopefully not for a long time, but this is where I want to eventually be scattered. Mid-way between Wadebridge and Padstow. If for any reason I kick the bucket sooner I want a parkrun guard of honour and very loud rock music at my funeral. No words, just as many kickass songs as time allows 🎸🤘

I’d normally be at Eden Project #parkrun when in Cornwall. Today I ventured into Devon, then briefly into Cornwall then back into Devon and finally back to Cornwall.

Popped along to the Fowey Regatta for a bit of fun and won best Camper! Amazing to take part in the parade through the narrow twisty streets.. super sunny holiday vibes too 😎

So a “peace deal” with no need for a ceasefire? Skeptical, very skeptical…

Cornwall

Hello everyone out there in #parkrun land. Can you help? I’m trying to sign up a current or former athlete to speak at an event I’m organising for all the EDs in the Kent region this October. The theme is inclusivity and overcoming adversity 🙏

Which list are you on? apple.news/AXfZEU6y5RFu...

Really enjoyed the book of #ProjectHailMary and can’t wait for the film. A very sciency sci-fi story where the exposition is cleverly part of the plot. Must check out Andy Weir’s over books

It was sad but not surprising to see #parkrun in the news this week. As more and more people discover the fun and friendship on offer in their local park it’s inevitable there will be complaints, some genuine. As parkrunners it’s OUR responsibility to police ourselves and be good neighbours.

Dead chuffed. According to Tanita my metabolic age is at least 15 years less than my actual age. That’s a win in my book 😎

#superman movie is so awful that I would have walked out had I not nodded off. Boring beyond belief with a pointless “swiss cheese” plot and 1 dimensional characters I couldn’t care less about. Minor characters there to provide exposition and not much else. Apart from all that…. It’s still awful.

BREAKING | Israel depriving Gazans of ‘human dignity’, says UK and 25 other countries in call to end war now

⚠️ Met Office warning of severe thunderstorms across the south east tomorrow. Check your #parkrun is on before leaving home!!! 🌩️🌩️🌩️

Enjoying the early morning cycle to Padstow followed by coffee on the harbour side. Occurs to me I know literally nothing about sailing which is a great shame. Seems to me the knowledge and experience needed to not kill yourself might be quite high.

Super hot and sweaty… but fun morning.
