Parkrun end of year report 2025

It’s been another busy year of parkrun for my family – from my 10 year old nephew to my 80 year old dad. There’s been some tourism, lots of volunteering by my husband, sister and I, PBs for my eldest and my sister, but mainly lots of turning up and running or walking, whatever the weather.

Here’s our parkrun end of year report for 2025.

  1. These must be really nice to look back on. I started a spreadsheet last year and have added our age gradings at them all too. Well done to all your family. But particularly your eldest son – what a PB and only 4 parkruns (obviously I know he runs elsewhere as I follow him on Strava, but still).

    1. That is a good idea. I’m not sure why I don’t track age gradings! Mine is very good and it really shows the difference between women and men, especially the difference between older women and younger men!
      My eldest has done really well. All of his running elsewhere has really helped his parkruns.
