Anyone watching BBC news this morning will have seen that Parkruns are still not definitely returning. I was just thinking, what can we all do if anything to write as a group or contribute to or just help Parkruns get going again???

I signed up last year just as Covid struck, so I've spent the full year preparing for my first one !!

Seb Coe was saying it's so unfair when football, rugby concerts etc are all allowed to restart so why not this. I just wondered whether we could all do something. There must be something we can do?? 🙄🙄🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

From reports it sounds like there have been a lot of "jobsworth" objections and conditions imposed by some councils. The sort of restrictions that give Health & Safety a bad name.
