Any Runners On Here??

Does anyone have a recommendation for a late season marathon?

As mentioned above, I've got other objectives this summer but wouldn't mind cashing in on my fitness to attempt a decent new PB in the marathon later this year.

Ideally August or later, a fairly fast, flat course and somewhere within reasonable distance of North East England.

Yorkshire marathon? It’s on the 19th of October this year. I PB’d there last year and got a GFA time for Chicago.

Did a local parkrun. First rule of parkrun…. remember your barcode. D’oh!

If you use a Garmin watch which supports it, I can highly recommend the parkrun barcode widget!

I’ve got two Garmin watches, and Apple Watch Ultra 2 and an iPhone all with the barcode on. I chose to wear one of my COROS watches and travel light 😂

The plastic tags sold by parkrun themselves feature a barcode. I have some (and with be keeping one in the car from now on 😊) Some of the apps, and other methods, convert it to a QR code but, as Jameshow states, both will work.
