I think that someone dressed as Merlin, riding a unicorn, will round up any would-be overstayers.

Anyone fancy getting themselves in trouble for this one.....

‘Black Combe parkrun’ is in the grounds of HMP Haverigg, a Category C men’s prison in Cumbria with 286 inmates.

The North West England region will be unachievable.
I foresee inmates getting "visits" from lots of sweaty strangers on a Saturday :-)

The Overseas Military Bases region was unachievable for the vast majority too. :)

About This Thread

Maintained by sLickster
There may be an inaugural parkrun happening near you. Best to check with the local parkrun volunteers to see if they want you to know about it or not.

Otherwise there are plenty of already established parkruns to go to in the UK and abroad, see: parkrun.org.uk
