Hello, Last weeks Sunderland Parkrun was in aid of Acorns childrens charity. It was a pity but the compacted snow and ice made it impossible for the organisers to let it go ahead safely . That didn't stop everyone faking a start for ITV and most having a nice run round on the grassy bits and raise a couple hundred quid. but more would be nice so this week , weather permitting we are all doing it again. It's off at the usual time of 9am so why not warm up with this one then have a a nice energy snack (full big breakfast @ 2:99 (not compulsary) ) up snack and strong booster coffee at sainsburys before getting gove to Gateshead (Plenty of time for the 12:30 Kick off) and blasting that 10k PB up the Joicey Road hill ( x3 lol ) @ saltwelll 10K. From Sunderland Parkrun facebook : Embrace the festive spirit this December & run, jog or walk the Festive Fun Run. Pull on your favourite festive fancy dress, get involved & support Acorns Children’s Hospice Minimum recomended donation of £1 per runner. (All proceeds go to Acorns Children’s Hospice Registered charity no. 700859) We’re Friendly!! Meet us opposite the Sunderland Tennis Centre Entrance at the start & join us for a coffee afterwards Tell Friends & bring the family!
