It’s pretty flat, I think it would be a good first one.

Stretford parkrun is just round the corner, also very flat and free.

True!

And yeah I know, this is my problem, debating whether it’s worth paying £18 to do what I do round the block ahah! I get that there’s an atmosphere and everything, but as you say parkrun is free!

I’m lucky, I’ve got stretford, wythenshawe and worsley woods all pretty close to me.

Unfortunately I usually work weekend mornings! Although that’s changing from October so I may go and try one then ☺️
