This is SPARKRUN! It's our 300th pod (298 + 2)! Nicola breaks from Ultra Race Director duties to go to Cosmeston Lakes parkrun in Wales, we find out who is a human embodiment of her parkrun history, and Danny, the 850 tw*t, goes to Wakehurst parkrun and does his final parkrun.

A thrummingly positive pod this week! Nicola was at the adorable Whitekirk Hill parkrun in East Lothian, Scotland, whilst Danny was at the tremendous Holkham parkrun in north Norfolk.

Whilst Nicola's up a mountain, Mark Brocklehurst joins Danny for this week's pod. Royalty blue plaques, parkrun France updates, Netherlands quickies, Mark micro-profiles Peacehaven parkrun and Dartboard Danny stayed close to home, just because.

Spam! Weakened by FOMO! Game changing powerhouses! The nichest email! parkrun Portugal! Collabs! And parkrun tourism, such as Nicola at Tokoinranta parkrun in Helsinki and then onto Haga parkrun in Stockholm, whilst Danny was at a dry Ross-on-Wye parkrun in Herefordshire.

The World's longest pre-amble and previous week's reference due to all the people listening in. All the feedback, a parkrun EMEA update, Star Warbitraries, Nicola was at Middleton Woods and Danny went back up the M1 to Nottingham and Forest Rec parkrun.

We've switched things around this week. Happy things first, less so in the latter third. The choice to listen to all, is yours. Nicola was at the pretty Pavilion Gardens parkrun in Buxton and Danny was at the wonderful Wollaton Hall parkrun in Nottingham.

Flipping Monopoly. No hosting. Audio receipts. Stats meets. Nicola introduced some newbies to Chevin Forest parkrun and Danny clip clopped his way around Hereford parkrun.

Unbirthdays, farewells, quirk history, happy cats, offensive emojis, root canals, Nicola and sister moo at Armley parkrun and Danny knows it's why we do what we do and where we do it at his home of Bushy parkrun.

Do we exist? Everything's yellow! A3102912 makes history. What's a Bespoke? Amy Rose is in control and Danny is present to usher in the age of the v1000 milestone at Riddlesdown parkrun for Nicki Clark.

The mood of the parkrun nation, audio from Futakotamagawa parkrun in Japan, the world's oldest 500 Clubber, Arcola Firwood profiles Philips Park parkrun in Manchester and Danny celebrates a double Cowell at Littlehampton Prom parkrun.
