Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Let's talk about inaugural parkruns after they've happened.

And nearby, at Kinross, news of a 2.5 km loop being constructed, specifically to be suitable for parkrun lochlevenslarder.com

Will this be the first purpose-built parkrun course?

Yes, the owner at Loch Leven Larder is a runner and has been very supportive of having a parkrun from there. It will be great. Loch Leven is beautiful and the Larder will make a good venue for those wanting coffee and cake after.

Going to pop along to Lochore Meadows inaugural this weekend, if I can. Will be my closest (not much closer than Dunfermline) and flattest (much, much flatter than Dunfermline! And even a bit flatter than Kirkcaldy, which is further away). Yay! :-) G

Lol Dv. You suggesting the Courier isn't the font of all knowledge. A simple read of History and parkrun web would probably have told them 2006 in Busy (or whatever it was - I haven't bothered to Google, Wikipedia or parkrun.org it either. But then I'm not a paid journo!) :-) G

Not much crack on here recently. No new venues yet?

Only update spotted is that Lanark apparently has funding secured. Previous post had said they hope to have the event ready to launch mid August. Not keeping a low profile on news front.

Just noticed that none of our lists have Aberdare or Chepstow/Severn Bridge on them.

I believe that Aberdare is imminent enough to have a date. If you happen to be in Wales during the summer holidays, it should be in a settled state by then.

About This Thread

Maintained by sLickster
There may be an inaugural parkrun happening near you. Best to check with the local parkrun volunteers to see if they want you to know about it or not.

Otherwise there are plenty of already established parkruns to go to in the UK and abroad, see: parkrun.org.uk
