Geococcyx This one seemed to hurt more than last week and I was 10 seconds slower!  Still happy with the time though, as I ran 14 miles yesterday.  I might have a day off before the next race in a fortnight. Unaffiliated 19:04 20:03 20:24 65.37

M62 Santa I HATED the second lap (apart from that lovely first hill) but it felt worth it when I looked at my Garmin at the end. Unaffiliated 19:46 19:59 20:59 20:36 63.05

Swimming Is Easier I've heard this isn't a pb course... so I'm aiming for around 25.30. I'd Looooove to get under 25 in a 5k though, I've only ever managed it in a 10k :-(
*UPDATE*
Got under 25mins!!!! Soooo pleased.  The up hills did take a bit out of the legs, but there were some nice down hill bits and it's such a pretty place, you don't feel the pain too much! Official time 24.49 x Manchester Tri 24:20 24:20 25:30 24:49 59.37

About this parkrun

Ages since I did this one, I only owned road shoes in those days and they were fine. Undulating route through the park. I remember enjoying it! :)

Feb 2016 - 2 laps with a few small hills, mixture of tarmac and trail.

2 laps, twisty turny, difficult to pass, can be very crowded, I think it is the oldest in't north, run like a well oiled machine, can be a bit crowded, very fast at the front, nice coffee van at the end. Good run, lovely park.

Lovely park. £1 for a couple of hours parking, app payment available.
Bramble 25th Jun 2022

Two laps of an undulating Park with all sorts of different surfaces to negotiate. Can get very packed and that means not a lot of room to run in.

run number 666 today so it was extremely busy, over 500 people but the team dealt with it without any trouble. Varying surfaces, little muddy in places. Plenty of parking, cafe with table service and a lovely old house to look at. Lovely place.

The granddaddy of all parkruns in the NW of England. A friendly busy two lap parkrun approx 50% tarmac and 50% trail (sections can get muddy following wet weather but road shoes usually OK). No buggies or dogs permitted. There are loos at the cafe.
