Once a Sprinter ... Apr 2013 8:39am, 25 Apr 2013 88 posts	0 Once a Sprinter ... Peterborough City Council are actively exploring the possibility of setting up a parkrun in the city. They have approached local running clubs & have started exploring potential locations & routes Any thoughts anyone? Would any Fetchies be interested in volunteering?
