Those photos are from Flikr, I like anyone else can't travel, I didn't take those two photos, of course I miss going walks round Pittencrieff Park as well as the parkrun on a Saturday morning.

I did my parkrun all by myself a couple of Saturdays ago...it was very strange

Well Mummycav since my last official Parkrun at Dunfermline on 14th March I have ran 9 unofficial virtual 5K parkruns locally near to where I live at exactly the same time as parkruns are ran in Scotland which is 9.30 am Saturday, it could be quite a while before parkruns resume in the UK.

A strange coincidence, if I run a 5K every Saturday up to Saturday July 11th it will be 17 virtual runs I will have ran, I have also ran 17 official Parkruns, also that same day would/will be my first parkruniversary and would have been Dunfermline's 5th birthday run, last July was my first parkrun and Dunfermline's 4th birthday, it was a good day to start parkrun as I had a piece of cake when everyone finished. 😊

I love virtual runs...do you remember my ‘medal a month’ post from December??

Those are great coincidences 😊

Hi GTFC, I was a bit lucky regarding the weather, I thought I might have to run my 10th virtual parkrun in driving rain and wind, however, at about 9 o'clock the rain went off although it was still windy, because of the wind I set my metromone app at 170 steps a minute instead of the normal 175, so at 9.30 I ran in the 🍃 wind and completed my 10th virtual parkrun in a little over 35 minutes at 35.14.

Sir! I bow down and simply say 'superb!'
