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!

One within 1/2 mile! (roll out of bed into running kit and over there all within 15 minutes laziness!).

I won't travel more than 30 minutes for a parkrun. I have a choice of 5 that fall into that criteria.

Nearest is about 15 miles (just over 20 minutes) away. I'm there most weeks since I'm on the core team. Next nearest is just over twenty miles and nearly half an hour away down the motorway and is where I'll go if ours is cancelled.

I spend too much time in the car commuting during the week to be interested in travelling further than that for a 5k (20 - 23 minutes) run.

The ones that I've been to locally are the two within my city, one is about half a mile away and the other is about 3 miles away. I could get to the Nottingham, Birmingham and Cov ones easily enough but am unwilling to sacrifice sleep.
