@AmandaF20074538 You have my full support Mandy. Ignore the misogynists in the comments who like to attack women who want fairness at parkrun. Well done for speaking up and making your voice heard 👍

Some info for those defending @parkrunUK ‘s sex discrimination policy. Remember this doesn’t affect males. Top male runners will remain male. More than 20 female records held by males. Most are age category records but one is the outright female course record (Lauren Jeska, Aberystwyth). This is in the UK. Who went on to commit attempted murder & is doing time in prison when a volunteer reminded him he was still male! More than 280 times, 1st finisher in Female category has been male (in UK). Males in Female category get huge boost to their age grade % score (varies by age category but roughly 10-18%). Therefore they shoot up age grade rankings, pushings others (males & females) down. Bearing in mind there are 4 categories: Male, Female, Another gender identity & Prefer not to say. So trans identifying males can ‘prefer not to say’ & still run dressed how ever makes them happy without ruining female finishing places. And 5 million pounds was given by sport England partially to grow female participation for which Parkrun have zero correct information because anyone can id as female. A reminder self id is not the law in the uk & the Supreme Court recognises sex as biological.

First of all - for all those men frothing at the bit about parkrun. If @parkrunUK posts places & times, it’s competitive. Simply add extra categories;Transmen & transwomen, & why not bring back records? Why shouldn’t women, as defined by Uk law, have their own category? And finally 5 million pounds of tax payers money, who by the way, support fair sport for females, went to parkrun, in part to grow female participation, which with no female only category has zero way of showing it is doing so! Simply run in a category of your biological reality. It’s not rocket science. Everyone runs together anyway. But stop letting males displace females. And boys grow up, stop being idiot misogynists! No one wants to stop Parkrun. We simply want fair finishing places for women. Even you can grasp that, surely?

This man encouraged violence against a woman. Now he’s blaming other people for their “interpretation”. And brushing it off as humour. Men brush their despicable behaviour off as humour all the time. Where is your apology, Leo, to the woman you targeted? Forgot, did you? 🤬🤬
Leo 𝕏@leo_leo_X

I have deleted a post in which I modified a photo of someone wearing a sign on their back at ParkRun. Many people took offence at the photo and interpreted it as encouraging violence against women. That wasn’t my intention. It was a joke in poor taste and it didn’t land.

@leo_leo_X @AmandaF20074538 Leo “Please attack any woman who thinks women and girls have a right to privacy, dignity and safety.” Did I get that right Leo? Not the win you think it is.

A woman wears a sign calling for fairness in parkrun. In response, this man encourages violence against her by doctoring her sign. Gender ideology promoted by vicious misogynists like this is a thin veil for male violence against women & girls.

I wrote to the Trans Grancanaria race @TransGC after they allowed UK-based male runner ‘Sian’ Longthorpe to run in the Female category of their Half Marathon. He finished 34th in the Female category, bumping down 333 females, and 4th in the Female 40+ age category, bumping…

Trans-identifying male runner Longthorpe just ran the Trans Gran Canaria Half Marathon in the Female category. Results here.👇I’ve asked the organisers if they allow males in the Female category but whether they do or not, males in F cat is unfair, as… transgrancanaria.v3.livetrail.net/en/2026/progre…
