It's full of love this week! All the Valentine's things! There's ogols, ninjas, M25 facts, A12000000, pop-up puns, a record attendance, Bev and Nigel didn't parkrun, and Danny had an enchanting time at the beautiful Highcliffe Beach parkrun in Dorset.
Join us! Cult members Danny and Nic Nic talk viral vids, AI impacts, paused events, chip butties, Danny rages about turtles and they're both very excited for future travels.
Danny and Nic Nic walk us through another week in parkrunworld. There's The King at Sandringham parkrun, they fondly remember Hannah Corne, Nic Nic keeps pace at Bramley and Danny captures a moment from Kingston parkrun.
Back once again with the Chessy Trio: Danny, Bev and Nigel. This week it's all about damp squids again, the RDF* again, emails about kindness, mapped pizza runs, tarts, records, smoothly run events and a super profile of the latest Essex event: ARU Writtle parkrun near Chelmsford.
Nic Nic's back with Danny for the first time in a while. They chat virtual assistants, the 'Real Double Funnel', have a smidge of Things, make a point about Holme Pierrepont parkrun, Nic Nic recaps her break and gives a 'prasen' to Market Rasen Racecourse parkrun whilst Danny profiles London's latest event, Greenwich Peninsula parkrun.
We're back and kicking off 2026, in mid-January. Bev, Nigel and Danny bring us chat, emails, stories, news (both good and sensationalist), Things and recaps from parkrunworld during the Christmas break.
It's a little different this one! Danny, Surrogate Mum Bev and Chessington Unity friend Leanne pop to Poland to participate at Kraków parkrun on Boxing Day and Puszcza Niepołomicka parkrun the day after. There's also the small matter of being part of a big attendance at the Christmas Day event at Bushy parkrun.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all! Christmas jokes, shield toads, nearly 102-year old Colin Thorne did a Thing, the 5k app starts its updates, now it's DrPSHCBEFRSA, we recap our year, Nicola went to see the Bramley Family and Danny was enamoured by Whitecliffe Lake parkrun in Kent.
It's Danny with Bev and Nigel again (and some cats). It's a simple one this week, with Met Office chat, the equalising of volunteering, the 'officialdom' of challenges, good news from Osterley parkrun, Nigel added one more to his Lon-Done list, whilst Danny and Bev just stayed close to home.
Yawn. And big stretch. You butter believe there's more discussion about the 5k app being official, theories about volunteering changes and a small chat about 'that' inaugural. Plus Nicola went to Woodlands parkrun, Scarborough and Danny went to Downs Link parkrun, Shoreham-by-Sea.
'Ello! Happy Thanksgiving! It's a quickie this week. Nic Nic visited East Holmes Field parkrun in Ilkley, West York-shire and Danny diverts to Plan B at Oxford parkrun.
Exorbitant orbs! Danny puts the Chess in Chessington. York becomes one parkrun fewer. 'That' Facebook group is mothballed. Dame Kelly's grading. Nicola does a spot of heavy breathing and Danny goes back to his very origins alongside his marshalling parents at Stanborough parkrun Lakes in Welwyn Garden City.
How Do You Do, Fellow Kids? This week's episode is popping off! There's a Yesvember dichotomy, San Francisco says welcome back to parkrun, there's maybe flies on wood and seals in waterfalls, concerns on changes to parkrun culture, and Danny learns all about Newbury with his visit to Victoria Park parkrun.
It's stacked and packed this week! It's Yesvember. We prove a husband wrong. We learn about Allerheiligen. There's Celebrity Traitors and The Great British Bake Off. There's the new Parkrace app. There's Baby Wonky Bears. Tiny Steve makes tiny history. Nicola wore Hallowe'en fancy dress. And 'King' Danny had a Coronation Park parkrun-filled morning.

There's the best bit of community at Hagley parkrun in Christchurch NZ, Bev ambassadors for 5k Your Way at Kingston parkrun plus Danny and Nigel pop to Storeys Field reborn at Brook Leys parkrun in Cambridge.
There's marshal marshmallows, Danny goes honey nuts, a very niche once in a parkrun lifetime opportunity, we say hello to a new listener, a tactical Christmas wish, Nicola went west side to Moss Side at Alexandra parkrun in Manchester and Danny did 10-years straight at Riddlesdown parkrun in Croydon.
