I heard part of this on radio this morning.
Just seen my localish park does this.
Superb idea and great to see such togetherness/community spirit can be acheived
Good luck to all that run
I seem to recollect your from the Peterborough area, which is where I spent my teenage years and my parents still live. The parkrun there is about 10 minute walk from my parents, have done it a few times weird taking part in an event like that so close to where I grew up.
Gatso and claw been doing these I think.
5k's not far enough for me, I tend to stick to marathons and half marathons nowadays.
Tap in for chocolate joke...
A joke aimed at the 30+ market there....
Yeah I know Gatso has been doing it for a quite while.
Yup I do them also got both my Daughters involved. I was made aware of them by a poker bud from up north late last year.
I can only make every 2 weeks though as I work every other weekend. I live in Kent but am visiting Sheffield this weekend and will have the pleasure of running around with me eldest Daughter exactly as I did last Saturday in Gravesend with my youngest Daughter. I love them and am also getting addicted.
Aiming to get the top in my age group with in the next 6 months or so and then do a bit of tourism around local ones to set some more old fogy records
They really are a no brainer for all abilities.
What's your Age grade? Mine is currently 66.25% but will have to get over 70% if I want to achieve my goals.
Just did a quick check and it appear 47.42% is the answer. I am overweight guy 2/3s down the field, that can be seen just outsprinting 60yo women at the end! I am improving though!
Yeah I have been something of a tourist since I started, there are 4 in Nottingham area and the girlfriend lives down south so have that area to explore as well.
