You missed out on the box of coop goodies handed out at the end of the Hove parkrun - about £7 groceries and a £3 voucher - should post this in the tight wad thread
I was at the most excellent TriYas Triathlon today in Abu Dhabi (watching only). First ever one held on a F1 racetrack apparently. 1.5k swim in the marina, 7 laps of the racetrack on the bike followed by 10k run. Does inspire you to run. May go for a jog now.
