Hi all ,just wondering has anyone here experience of the Glasgow parkruns.

I'm visiting my daughter who lives there next week and hoping to do a parkrun.

I've only done one parkrun before which was difficult..... far too many hills 😱

Any help appreciated πŸ‘

I am sure there is someone with first hand experience but you can also find it on the park run website. If you click on the tab marked course it gives you a brief description which might tell you if there are significant hills. I think there might be more than one in Glasgow.

Sarah I also have a daughter in Glasgow and have done Pollock park Parkrun - worse than Armagh! And I don't say that lightly!

There are a few in Glasgo though depends on where you are. My daughter is moving to Motherwell and has already said that there is a Parkrun 2 and a half miles away! :)
