Episode 192 - World Tourists
The episode's headline topic. Mel explains the parkrun World Tourists Facebook group (started about a year earlier by UK parkrunner Cass Castleton; entry requires four parkrun countries, with the UK counting as one, which is how Dave was rejected on his Isle of Man attempt), its spreadsheets for country counts and an international alphabet, and the Continental club. The inaugural World Tourist Meet-up runs on 8 February 2020 at five events across five regions - Presint 18 (Malaysia), Delta Park (South Africa), Castle Park Bishop's Stortford (UK/Europe), Livonia (USA/Canada) and Rhodes for Australia/NZ, where 25-30 people are expected. Simon Nash proposed the annual meetup date.
