Me too, although I think that the last one on the list is supposed to be the toughest Parkrun in the UK, if I remember rightly! So might save that one for last... 😅

Yep, just double checked and it is the last one on the list. Breathtaking, quite literally! 😂 Wonder if anyone on here has done it?!

in reply to Debston

theoldfellow recommended this to me once, as a must do when I go to the Lake District. Don't know if he's actually done it, but it's his parkrun.
