Thanks LazyDaisy - My window cleaner is a member of Almost Athletes and said I should go along. I passed one of your members running the Bristol Half at the weekend too and said hello! Maybe I'll get round to it soon?!

Joint_ear - So does it look like the 6th October one won't go ahead? I've been talking to a few running buddies who're all really excited at the prospect of having one here. Do please keep us informed!

No. Still no news on a start date :-(

Joint_ear is there anything the rest of us can do to get things moving? Anyone at the council we need to lobby perhaps?

:-o at least I assume it didn't - joint_ear didn't ask for any help with volunteers or anything?? I'm a bit confused now tbh

No, "still in discussions with council" it seems. :-(

Come on Cheltenham Borough Council this would surely tick the "community health" boxes!

Just heard about this from the AA FB page. V up for it, and happy to volunteer maybe one out of three and when injured (which is all the time lol). Would really like it to be a 'real' parkrun event though cos of the sense being part of a national (global) running movement, their stats and achievements etc. I believe when you join up with them they can help with finding funding/sponsorship.
