Course inspection completed ahead of Saturday 14th March. We are…
…ON! 🥳
It’ll be our 3 lap course & trail shoes are recommend for a few sticky patches riverside 👟
Of course it’s subject to having enough volunteers. If you can help email [email protected]#loveparkrun🌳
Usually we inspect on a Friday morning, but we’re making an early call this week.
The course is drying out nicely but it needs a little longer before we set hundreds of people loose.
So off this week, but keep checking back here to see we’re able to resume.
#loveparkrun🌳
It’s been drier this week. The river levels are dropping. The course is drying out. 🥳
However, parts are muddy enough that staying upright is a challenge even in trail shoes. So we’re cancelled again this week. 🧐
Tune in next Friday for another update. ⏭️ 🤞
