As i said in my original post - the Salford 5K in Heaton Park (a long established race in the calendar) was definitely affected by the fact that there had been a park run that morning.
Richard Head - I agree we do not all want to do 5Ks but what is to stop Park Run doing a free 10K every Saturday morning - This has already happened in Heaton Park by the way.
In all seriousness there must be people at Salford Harriers wondering just what was the point in organising their 5K event in the park?
