Our Run Director was eaten by a shark at Gedling juniors!

Roger Sawtell took part in his first-ever parkrun at Northampton on Saturday...

He completed the course in a time of 46 minutes and 26 seconds...

Roger is 92 years of age!

I left school without qualifications and found Westminster Kingsway FE college the path to staying in education, full of creativity, flexibility and human kindness - I completed a BTec in art & design in 1997-1999 #loveOurColleges #thankYou …

281 finishers, 29 brilliant volunteers, 1 fabulous morning. Results for event 429 are online.

Zoos allow people to see animals they wouldn’t usually see, and you can see them in their natural habitat there.

Sorry! Not zoos! I meant YouTube!
Zoos are prisons.

Who's coming to celebrate #parkrun15 with us tomorrow?

Oh god please let this be true.

Not only would it be great for her, it would be hugely gratifying to know that, upon hearing the news, Piers Morgan stopped wanking into a flannel over Donald Trump’s latest public racism just long enough for his bul…

Running up the 'Bit in the middle' at Mount Gedders takes parkrun power and our juniors have it in spades! Go team!

Our message is clear - it’s not ’Remain & go back to way things were’

It’s Remain & Radically Transfo…

Brexit referendum didn't deliver the outcome many of us hoped for

But you can't pretend the result didn't happen. LibDems are doing just that

You can't turn back the clock.

The culling of badgers needs to stop. It’s cruel, costly & doesn’t work

I support calls from @BadgerTrust, @BornFreeFDN, @AnneatSaveMe & others for an independent public inquiry into badger culling and bovine TB

We are killing a protected species …

I never forget a kindness @DianaJohnsonMP offered to share her office with me when I became an MP and didn’t have one, she’s given me advice and support more times than I can count, she’s always texts when she knows I’ve had a bad day. She’s a true …
