GD is a much smaller field - 500 at Bedford 200 at GD. 50 pct on good tarmac the rest on hard pack, which is generally good.

You might start at the front at Bedford - but you'll be lapping people - possibly on twice!
I really enjoyed GD as it's the first lapped course I've done without being lapped - so the front runners must get an easier path through

Ooooh you lot do put spanners in the works sometimes
I'll look into it a bit more, especially logistics from / to Bedford when I know where the BBC is starting from and which pub we're ending up at

If you get muddy on GD you must be going off course 😉

FF did you make a decision on which parkrun you are doing on the 13th? Would be nice to get some support for you

Mrs Jigs I haven't decided yet, I've had a bit on at home to think about that.
I've realised in the sidebar that Heckington is July not June, sorry.
I'm going to do Peterborough this Saturday all being well and as I'm sat here writing I'm more likely to do Great Denham as a) it's one I've not done and b) people reckon it will be better than Bedford.
I was considering parking in Bedford and running to Gt Denham and back for the BBC after. However then there's the logistics of the start, finish and pub so I'm unsure now.

Plenty of parking at the P&R just about a kilometre from the start of GD, depends how far you want to run on the day.
