Add Springburn (Glasgow) to the longer term runs. The Glasgow parkrun team seem to be promoting it. No fb page as yet.

Outside the scope of the thread, but if anyone is in Singapore in the New Year, parkrun Southeast Asia seems to be kicking off in Bedok park on January 11th. It is on fb.

I don't see why non-UK ones should be outside the scope of the thread, always interesting to see when a new country starts.

(actually I will be in Singapore in December and came up with a blank when I did a quick web search a couple of weeks ago to see if there were any signs of a parkrun out there - shame just too early)

I was making the possibly unwarranted assumption that it was UK only.

One for our esteemed thread leader to rule on. :)

I heard something about Aldershot from a runner I was chatting to the other day, but have found nothing on the Internet about it. Anyone?

Haven't heard any Aldershot rumours.

Look like the previously independent Moscow "parkrun" (on fb) will soon be official.

This will be a big thread if it's going to be international.

Yeah, I'm just going to keep this updated with UK ones, but someone else could start an international thread if they like :-)

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
