We have started to do a bit more parkrun tourism and therefore adding reviews to the site. Thought it may be a good idea to add them all to one page.
Listed alphabetically for ease. Colour coordinated by area. Short description to remind me which footwear we will need if we head there. Finally a little bit about the course.
Each of the posts also has stats taken from the time we did the course. This includes:
· Female and male course record.
· How many finishers under 30 minutes.
· Best age grading.
· The range of finish times.
Also I will have mentioned any parkrun challenges that I ticked off at the time.
