Parkrun UK deleted race times / course records

I can give you some more clues if you want

If definitely was not a race but some people ran really fast and some people didn't
Potentially a trans person once ran on the course but for some reason didn't qualify for the olympics as its a fun community event
It was held in a park with marshals (please note this does not mean its UTMB or world indoors)
I ate cake after and the man gave treats to the dog that was not even his but hes a 2:20 marathoner just doing a tempo spin

I'm a 46 year old runner who isn't really that obsessed with running any more because I spent my twenties and half of my thirties running "properly". Can you guys hate us women any more than you already do? The insults on this thread are disgusting. Yes, we do the same sport as you because its allowed. You don't have to hate us for daring to have an opinion about it and mock us and belittle us.

I think people running with dogs are cheats, just like women running with male bodies, if they take places from people running fairly. Whether thats park run or not, I don't care. Although I'm avoiding park run in future.

I know men like you really want us to be silent and obedient little serfs so that other men can get away with cheating and make you feel better (I'm not sure how that works but I assume its something to do with being turned down by female runners in the past so you feel that if men can emulate us, you somehow get one over on women) but there aren't that many women to do that any more, unless you pay 35k for their visas and health care.

Its always the long distance runner types, sprinters and middle distance athletes are usually quite well adjusted. I was primarily an 800m and 1500m runner when I raced seriously, so the world of embracing park run and men insulting me for being "too slow" are a bit alien to me. To be honest, the only thing that would bring me back to park run despite all its issues would be if they reduced it to 3k, because as a former middle distance track athlete, 3k is about as far as I'd ideally want to run on the roads.

I suspect theres too much actual running content in this post for you.

No-ones that interested in you, the amusement offered by you on here, spelling and grammatical mistakes and all, is just to mock you and I suspect its far more attention than you get in real life. I mentioned before that your responses are really predictable and turn to personal insults, we are just baiting you because nobody really believes you ran 15.xx at park run.

If my 19.30 as a 46 year old woman and sub 18 as a senior are mocked on here for being slow, theres no way that your 15.45 on a short course qualifies as "really fast" on Lets Run. And since you claim to have finished in second place to the guy on the spin bike with a dog, there can't have been anyone "really fast" there at all, except perhaps the first placer.

Have you ever considered training properly and doing some UKA accredited races instead of park run? Whats the reason you are drawn to park run? Can't you compete in the real world of racing?

Man, I would love it if somebody set up an alternative to park run over 3000m. Did I mention 3000m? Gives me an idea...

Welcome to the first inaugural 100% female 3km sponsored by
the Daily Mail & Waitrose.
Here live on the BBC we will be watching this fantastic
racing by mid 40 year old ladies running rather slowly round a park for 3km.
Of the 6 entrants to the race we have one clear favourite.
Tabatha Twister – Formerly an 800m runner who runs now of
pure hate of men. Her personal interests are an irrational fear of trans people
and getting upset about Dogs beating her in community fun runs.
Now before we go park side to watch the person shouting go (another
sign of a professional race) we will go and see the marshals as they check for
Penises & then beat any dog owners to death who dares to enter this brutal
official Race Race Race.
Now back to Sharon Davis in the studio with Mara as they
bitterly discuss why they are not relevant in any capacity.

There are a lot of unresolved issues in this post.

Not completely convinced you're doing your 'middle distance runners are well adjusted' claim much justice with this rant.

I genuinely, honestly, laughed out loud at the comment that people running at parkrun with dogs are cheats. She’s got serious issues, but it’s funny watching her wind herself up.

I wonder if parkrun will notice her one-person protest? I expect the parkrun volunteers at their community event will be glad to be shot of her, unless of course they have no idea who she is.

Well KoshJerr has clearly never done a parkrun in his life as he thinks the order of barcode scanning effects the results. Now it seems you haven't done a parkrun either as canicross entrants are always clearly marked as 'assisted' on the results page whenever I've ran in a race with them and are ineligible for any records, PB's etc. So yes, this undermines your point entirely- if it isn't in any way a race, then why are canicross athletes removed from all of those aspects and marked as 'assisted' I wonder.

I have never seen a transexual in real life, or know anyone who knows of a transexual.

Strange how there is so much noise about such a tiny group of people.

Nope, well certainly not in the event I did in 2018. Maybe rules have changed since then but I’ve literally just checked the results for that day and she is in there as a female. This is the person I was on about, but I’ve no idea if she always runs with a dog at parkruns, but she has done 199 parkruns as I just checked her parkrun profile, and can’t see any mention of the word ‘assisted’.

Sherwin claims European gold, while Tawney picks up a bronze

Leamington C&AC duo Elaine Sherwin and Susie Tawney both came back from the European Canicross Championships with medals after the two-day event in the Loire region of France.

And I’ve done coming up to 300 events, but probably you won’t believe me, and frankly I don’t care :)

Kilted runner is desperate to show us his ParkRun details because he just keeps on trying to bait people by asking them for theirs. Either that or he is a bit stalky.

Hes really proud of his 200 attendances and park run tourism. Almost as much as he loves complaining to his friends Trevor and Susan about how the liberals have ruined Parkrun now that he cant see that one time he ran under 20 mins.

Kilted - your debating skills are as worthy as the SNP during the last independance debate. Give up and get yourself a place in your friends 3km dash sponsored by Piers Morgan & Jeremy Clarkson Gammon wholesalers (not including sausages cos they are banned)

Jesus, stop trying to be funny, it's absolutely chronic. An absolute patter crisis.

Other people have asked for your parkrun details, I haven't asked you for anything, merely pointing out that your claims to have run parkrun are nonsense given you accidentally revealed you didn't know the extreme basics of how the scanning system operates, and you think a German Shepherd ran a 5k in 15 minutes. The merkin person I believe after his reply, but generally parkrun have a policy of marking these runs as assisted, that's certainly how I've always seen it appear.

oh my god kilted its ok

we can all accept you lost, you dont need to keep messaging about your little world collapsing. Most people have forgotten about it.

Now im sure Trevor & Susan will nod sagely as you tell them all about how you ran a sub 20 5km one day.

The rest of the world moves on

Women actually support this movement more than men. You’re looking for an easy target so you direct your anger to men. Typical straw man.

A quick look at the results of the Scottish city which had 3 park runs reveals that no first or second placers achieved the times that he claims to have ran in in the last 2 weeks. Nor was there a 2.20 marathon runner winning because there was a proliferation of junior male winners in Edinburgh last weekend.

He's not Scottish or living in Scotland, thats for sure, with his use of "gammon", "Trevor" and "Susan", "dash" and "spin". He sounds like he should be the elderly uncle in Saltburn, not running around Possil or Figate Park.

They've created a whole little fantasy world for themselves.

I see parkrun has released an open letter which, to be fair, totally dodges the reason for these data/display changes. It’s not going to fend off the people who are upset by the changes, that’s for sure.

https://www.parkrun.com/blog/news/2024/02/14/an-open-letter-from-russ-jefferys-ceo-parkrun-global/

I have heard mention elsewhere that another set of parkrunners are extremely upset about the removal of the data that showed how many different parkrun locations people have done. I wasn’t aware as I hadn’t seen it, but parkrun used to have a ‘most events’ list (ie, most different parkrun venues), and those on that list are very annoyed - I think some have done many hundreds of different venues, across multiple countries, and that list has been taken down and they’re not happy about it.

Maybe the information he gave was close to accurate but not completely accurate as to stop people finding out exactly who he was.

A bit like you did.

Never said that.

Just want to know which Parkrun you did,or is that a lie?

Christ I would never come from Scotland. It's the pits of the earth.

I love the way you all want to prove something. It's heartening to know your worlds are so broken and small.

It's like I said from the start. Some of us run park run and other keep track of every last detail cos it's their entire life.

Keep guessing 😍
