ORs Take On Parker 100 Challenge Once Again
The Parker 100 is more than just a run; it’s a tribute to Chris Parker, a cherished Repton teacher whose optimism and fairness inspired generations. Since 1986, the Parker 100 has been a Lent Term tradition, encouraging Reptonians to demonstrate dedication and resilience by completing 100 miles in 10 weeks. This is the second time that the Parker 100 has been opened to ORs, and with 140 ORs across the world from UK, Australia and USA to Hong Kong and UAE. Dan Quarshie (New 2001-06) was the first to clock up the mileage, completing 70.9 miles in just the first week and going on to rack up an incredible 689.6 miles in total. Andrew Cross (Brook 1973-77) proved that age is just a number by completing the Berlin Half Marathon at 66, a genuinely impressive achievement.
