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!

Team Puff! Does anyone know what the surface is? Trail or road shoes? :-) (it all helps, got to beat the men!)

From the Brockwell parkrun website:

" The course is in Brockwell Park (starting beside the Lido), and run on wide concrete paths, although some sections of the course do accumulate mud, leaves and puddles after rain"

So I'd guess road shoes

To give everyone a heads up, there are some works going on in the park and so some of the course is diverted onto the grass..... it gets really *really* muddy.

And... yes I know it's in 2.5 hours....are people doing fancy dress?

Enthusiastic!
There is a hungover pirate here who wishes she didn't have to do the running bit... What with 5k being her favourite distance and all...

About This Thread

Maintained by Naomi P
If you didn't know, BigChiefRunningBore and I are getting married in May. Hoorah!

Sadly, we can't invite everyone to the wedding so we thought we'd take over a Parkrun for a Stags vs Hens race at 9am on Saturday 5th May and invite as many people as would like to turn up to run with us. All welcome, it's not a clique thing.

It'll be at Brockwell Park, short walk from Herne Hill overground or Brixton tube.

Led by Chief and DaveB, the stags will (optionally) be in drag. Dave has promised to wear a garter. Contro will be doing a progressive run as he arrives through Brixton in a dress and compression socks.

There may be champagne and cake at the finish line if we get organised but we'll go on for breakfast at the Lido Cafe for bloody marys and bacon sandwiches. thelidocafe.co.uk
