Tom's been in Germany with Park Run and shares his adventure stories plus you

guys rock it around the world, rate your runs and stand high on the podium.

So Tom, how was Germany? God it was brilliant. I think we

recorded last Monday or Tuesday didn't we and I flew on the Wednesday morning and then it was and

we'll you know later in the show we're gonna go through it we're gonna go

through the kind of a day-by-day details with James Kemp who's our global

operations manager and reflect on it with PSH, Paul Tigner at the Part Run founder.

But it was amazing, Nine Cities, Nine Part Run Venues, I think Part Run, potential Park run teams from 12 or 13 different locations

just 1000 miles driven just absolutely brilliant. The big thing for us and at the risk of being repeated later in the show when the audio from that trips on there.

The big thing for us was just how amazingly the German running communities got it. Like they...

I was a little bit worried because they're so

sporty and good at running and performance sport.

I was a bit worried that they were going to see it as a bit...

somebody chopping a tree down outside by the way not a giant wasp.

If I suddenly go quiet I've been stung to death by a giant wasp.
