I think these are great. I'm just getting back to fitness and do the Platt Fields one every 2 or 3 weeks to gauge my improvement.
They're free and early, leaving the rest of the weekend free.
They're not that bad though Colin. I think it's easily a course you could run a PB on when compared to Heaton Park, for instance.
The big problem is if it's been raining / is icy. I raced a couple of months ago and it was -2 when the race started having had a weeks worth of rain - it was more like a cross-country course.
Bloody great turn out for Duncan M and his team at the first Worsley Woods parkrun this weekend

First park run for me at Platt Fields this morning. I must say I enjoyed it! I was a bit slower than I would've liked, hardly surprising condsidering I ran the HPM last weekend and had a two hour run over Kinder on Thursday, but I definitely had a good tempo run.
It was nice to see people clapping in the slower runners at the end. People moan about the fun running culture in his country, but at a time when most people sit on their arses eating crisps and drinking pop, park runs are a good thing!
All in all a nice morning - good to see OB1 there too!
