Well, I was researching 'holiday' (visitor) Parkruns to do during August, and these were on my research short list.
Aberystwyth - what I don't understand is that 'crazy' course description. It kind of puts me off.
"The course begins with an out-and back on the wide middle path through Plascrug park, followed by 3 anticlockwise laps on the outer paths, then onto the middle path again for the finish." What is that about then? Looks like lots of tooing and froing overa 1km patch that is 3 paths wide?
Someone (LJ?) please explain how this works / is fun?
Delamere - in contrast, this looks a lovely course. Anyone done this?
Congleton (just off the M6) - so handy if needing a diversion from a Sandbach traffic jam.
3 laps round the mere sounds pleasant enough. If I can cope with Oldham I can cope with this.
It looks flat. Would you say it is a PB-friendly course?
Sheringham - looks a lovely parkland course. Any feedback?
Sedgefield (just off the A1) - I have done this one before and long to revisit.
What' your holiday shortlist then?
PS - also on my list are all those northern Manchester parkruns I've not quite got to (Bolton, Worsley, Pennigton, etc).
Watergrove (Littleborough / Tod) looks interesting too.
