There's been lots of DRC runners doing epic things in London today and doing the club proud, but a special shout out has to go out to Michael Kenyon (pictured running not in London) who has blown our socks off by running 02:24:49 on his marathon debut. 😳

"I am a mum and a GP. Events like this are so good on many levels: Community belonging, child health and wellbeing. Encouraging fitness and personal achievement are life skills." Our junior parkrun consultation remains open until the end of March. dronfieldrc.co.uk/post/dronf…

We are proposing a weekly junior parkrun at Sindelfingen Park - but the council has denied the request. We are now gathering your thoughts about the event - which aims to get kids aged 4-14 active. You can read more about our plans here: dronfieldrc.co.uk/post/dronf…

Right, twitter friends - let's get some numbers on this post for one last big push on @TheBigDipperRun entries. It's got climbs, long rolling descents, stunning views across the Peak District, a pub at the finish and the friendliest vibe going. Enter at thebigdipper.run

Slow hand clap for @LondonMarathon for their decision to reduce club allocations by ~25% Down from 1,980 to 1,515, most clubs allocations cut, some now needing to enter a ballot. An excellent way to support and promote the life blood of the sport. 🙄 #ukrunchat
