💙❤️ Thankfully the weather's warmed up a bit so normal service can be resumed, however last weekend there was a shortage of local Parkruns available.Most Parkruns were cancelled well before Saturday due to the icy conditions that had lingered all week, however Roundhay Parkrun was able to run their B course which involves 3 laps around Soldiers Field. Rob Spedding and Kris Brown were amongst the 690 runners who braved the snow and ice. Rob's time was 26:57 while Kris finished in 28:07. There was definitely no cold weather for Caron Holburt who completed Claisebrook Cove Parkrun at Perth waterfront in Australia with a time of 34:04.Well done guys 👏Hopefully Parkrunning will go ahead as normal this weekend as we're off to Hillsborough for January's Parkrun Championship 🏆 ...
