You might want to double check... there seem to be new Runs popping up on a regular basis - it wasn't that long ago that there were absolutely none anywhere near me!!

This is a great app for locating nearby parkruns. I've used it when travelling and on holiday too!

Thanks for that- very useful. But as I thought, the nearest parkrun is 3 hours drive away! I might contact the local running club and see if anyone has considered starting a Parkrun.

Brilliant meme, I think many of us can relate to that! Good luck with the parkrun, you can do it!

Me too runananana. I signed up yesterday and will attend my first park run Sat morning.

I got inspired too by some colleagues at work. I was going to wait a few weeks (I graduated on Monday) but then I thought 'what's the worst that can happen'? I'll just walk to finish it if I need too...

wishing you lots of luck!

But ultimately, you're a DevonRunner :-) Best of luck to you - and don't forget what Laura says about pushing yourself :-)

(that's what i was thinking about the 'what's the worst that can happen' : I'll take a minute to catch my breath. Big deal :-) )
