season's best at Preston Park for me today - gradually creeping back up, with 23:00 and 73.62%

Two tickets on the site right now

I have the same question - plan on driving, and I've not been there before. Anyone know what's the easiest place to park within walking distance of the ground (and what it's like getting out afterwards)? Thanks in advance

Thanks Simgull : good to see you doing a sterling job on the water station. I had a great day, and really enjoyed it - perfect conditions, great support, just fantastic. I don't know about "excellent" (at least in NSC terms), but I came in with 3:57:24 which I was quite pleased with. Not a PB by...

Thanks knocky1. These small margins matter a lot to us oldies.....

Thanks knocky1. What order is the table in, now? If it’s 2022 AG, it doesn’t look quite right (at least in the part of the table I’m interested in 🙂)

Happy birthday and well done. Did that parkrun last September - lovely route, but punishing with the sand and hills!

knocky1 one for the table, while I’m queuing for my beer at the Amex. 23:14 at Preston Park, which is 72.88% AG. Nowt to shout about but better than recent performances. Marginal gains and all that …

Thanks knocky1. Always good to see the new table! All I’ve been able to manage so far in 2022, given my persistent Achilles problem, is 24m04s at Preston Park on Jan 8 which, thanks to my advanced age, gives me an AG of 70.36% Plenty of scope to improve during the year, though ….

Thanks - it’s weird, because it looks from the webpage as if they are at the Bridge car park, but it then says they’re at UoS when you click through to purchase

Glad to see they’re doing this. Firstly it means they’re taking it seriously. Secondly they’re doing it in an efficient way that doesn’t slow down the entry to the stadium for most people. I find it “un f**king believable” that anyone would object, personally

Depending on how wet it is, walk/run or cycle

The level of mask wearing in the concourse (among people who were not at the time eating or drinking) was pathetic - reckon 30% at best in West Lower and, as far as I could see, there was zero effort from stewards or staff to encourage, let alone enforce, the mask-wearing mandate. Given that...

This happens to me too. Don’t need to delete the app tho. Just close it completely and reopen and it’s usually fine

And those of us for whom the decision comes a day too late to get a refund on their hotel bookings …..
