The last of the inaugural chat (for now), there's a Stats update, King Charles III pops in for a parkfaff, Colin Thorne is the oldest parkrunner at 101, there's adoptions, Nicola sailed over to Sale Water parkrun in Greater Manchester plus Danny would and did Lingwood parkrun near Norwich.

Coincidences, entitlement, legal chemicals, records broken, Nicola mooooved around Doddington Hall parkrun in Lincoln, whilst Danny once again became Lon-Done at Ingrebourne Hill parkrun.

With great breaks comes great catch up. Conglomerate ethics, alphabet protection, farewell to Chrissie Wellington, inaugurals cancelled, Slough handclaps, Christmas visits (featuring Melton Mowbray, Great Yarmouth, Lincoln, Sloughbottom and Blickling), super niches, dicey icey tourism and Patrons' things.

Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year! It's the last pod of the year with chocolate choices, some Top 3 parkrun Moments of 2024, Facebook issues, St Nic Nic popped to Pontefract parkrun and Danta Claus took to the trails at Trelai Park parkrun in Cardiff.

The impacts of Storm Darragh, the subjectivity of humour, a heap of arbitrary and thing comments, Nicola popped to a muddy Armley parkrun and Danny bumped into a familiar face at the super friendly Brundall parkrun near Norwich.

Advent ponderings, rapturous feelings, Nicola was solar powered at Cross Flatts parkrun and Danny, after all these years, visited Norwich parkrun and met the Buglets.

Storm Bert's impacts, our tribes, the 'definitive' book, Nicola managed to make it to Cheadle Hulme parkrun in Stockport and Danny took a chance on Aberfields parkrun in south Wales.

Lifesaving AEDs, hey there Mr BlueSky, parkrun Global requires two new trustees, Nicola volunteers without any sleep and Danny questions names and runs on sconces at Newark parkrun.
