The city of Rome in Italy is famous for amazing food, history, culture and iconic architecture. And now... parkrun! 🇮🇹

Roma Pineto parkrun launches on Saturday 7 April

Well, I doubt if Helene could put us all up!😁

I wonder how big the Rome Parkrun will get? could be a big turnout as not many PRs in that local area..

Ridden? Are you a biker? Italy is great fun by motorbike.

What a wonderful route, truly spectacular - probably some of the best scenery in Europe.

My husband and I used to travel by motorbike to places like Tuscany and Sicily, and of course also places closer to Rome - but that was all pre-kids 🙄

This is brilliant as we have no Parkruns anywhere near here. There are several in other cities but they still have a poor turnout. Rome has loads of runners so I'd love to see this take off and hope it will.

On the sad side of things, I work a 6 day week... So I'm in the office on Saturday mornings 😭

But if/when I get the odd Saturday off, I will be there!

Love the idea of the Brit contingent taking over the Rome parkrun! We should do it!! 🇬🇧🇮🇹

Thank you so much for thinking of me davelinks
