Just wanted to say well done to all those who decided (last night I’m guessing) that parkrun would be a good idea this morning! 💨 🌧 🌬 🥶. Ours was summed up as ‘adverse conditions’. It’s muddy as soon as there’s any rain and everyone came back with a wet side and a dry side! I was just marshalling and should have been able to watch the second half of the rugby 😢 but only saw the last quarter as I couldn’t peel myself out of the shower. #parkrunnersareamazing

Amazingly the reverse in Ireland this morning. Flat calm, blue sky, a little warmth in the Sun. Had a lovely parkrun and got home in time to watch the second half of the match. Hard luck to England.

Well done on volunteering Sybilw. Ours was cancelled at the last minute so volunteers made their way down to be turned away. It would have been too dangerous down here.

Last night weather app showed rain and very windy. Luckily no rain and strongish breeze only - also with Sewerby it was against wind first k then behind you along cliff side! A little muddy and greasy but so glad I got out of bed!!!

We were very lucky in Lincolnshire. Sunny with a moderate breeze at 9.00am so a lovely parkrun day. The rain started just after I got home, in time to watch the 2nd half!

Ours was on, but it was very squally and wet for the most part. I volunteered today - shame because only just over 200 turned up so I would have achieved my highest finishers place at our PR! 🙄😅
Me too! I’ve got as high as 80th but would have smashed that today!! Ours is a relatively small parkrun. However it was bad enough just standing still today . . . .

Well done marshalling in those conditions

Just Marshalling! Without the likes of you, we couldn’t go out in adverse weather conditions. Thank you.💋💋

Three of us were put off by our local Parkrun as the river tow-path was VERY muddy, so said we'd go to the next nearest (field circuits and tarmac). However, on the morning the weather forecast was dire - heavy rain and high winds, so we cancelled at the last minute.
So about 3 this afternoon I'm heading to a local park to do my 5km, as it's calmed down a bit.
One of these days I must try running in foul weather, but as I'm quite inexperienced at the moment I prefer to play it safe for now.
Yes very much better safe than sorry. Hope it went well. You can be braver in better weather ( I’ve fallen twice and couldn’t even blame the weather! 😆)

Well done for marshalling too!🤗 It was absolutely throwing it down here. It wasn’t a run day for me, although I’d go for my run if it was, I don’t think I would have taken on Parkrun today. They do deserve a very big cheer!🤩 I watched the rugby! 😥! I’m just going to curl up with a book and a blanket now. 😁❤️

That sounds like a great plan!

Well done everyone that braved it out today! It was touch and go there for a while whether parkrun would be on or not!

It was a soggy parkrun over the road this morning and I cannot stand the mud so I didn’t go...so yes, hats off to those who did!
