Living in the Scottish Borders, the nearest Parkrun is actually in North West England in Carlisle which is 44 miles away, how I envy all you folks who can just pop to a local Parkrun every week. I will go soon but it will involve two hours driving overall not to mention time to find the place in an unknown area.

There are a few around Glasgow. Have you looked at the jogscotland website? They often have free jogs arranged
If you go on holiday, you might find a Parkrun near your destination (particularly if you're staying in the UK). Otherwise, it sounds like you should make contact with other runners and get a Parkrun set-up!

Hey, im in the borders too i go to Edinburgh parkrun, like fitfor60 says its a great course, very flat, which makes a change from all these hills around here
and has lovely views too. I don't go very often as i work Sundays but usually make a day of it while in there.

Is there a running club near you? I am not sure how it all works but maybe if there is enough interest you could start a parkrun near you?

Make it a weekend trip somewhere beautiful. Including your parkrun on one of the days. There are lots of cheap deals around. Good luck!

what area in the borders is everyone from (if you dont mind saying)?? Im from there too, just outside Lauder
I am in Hawick, hence Carlisle closer for me. You are not too far from edin. Pity there was not one somewhere like Gala in central borders.
