With Multiple Marathons Now - Tart Twins

Nicola is back from her five marathons in five days…she might mention it, and there’s a welcome back for Stewart Harding from “Running is BS”. - or should that be "Punning is BS"?

Nicola tells of her morning at Potternewton parkrun whilst Stewart profiles Brynaman parkrun and there is much head scratching at why so many people went to event 69 at Penistone parkrun.
