There was a post on facebook listing UK Parkruns in terms of gradient - our Parkrun is just about in the middle of the list - so not too bad. So I wondered what the hilliest one in Northern Ireland was - found it and I know the area so I smiled to myself and thought "Never doing that one then" - the 8th hilliest run in the UK. Then it occurred to me - no I mightn't do that Parkrun but I am doing a flipping 10k run there on Sunday!!!!! Oops!

I saw this and kinda wish I kept the link but it's lost for ever!
anyway i looked up Maidstone my local parkrun and there is a big up hill and down hill at the start and then again at the finish! which is not true!
So not sure how accurate it is or how they got their data.

here is the link to the website - jegmar.com/fastest-races/pa...
I have run several of my 'local' parkruns. The ranking on this site doesnt match the ranking I would give them in difficulty against each other.
Is there a reason why that would be?

I'm #38 Newbury.
Actually that looks like the 'old' Newbury course, but the new one is pretty similar.
Not what you're looking for?
