Oddest, how dare you? 😤 Most Unique is our description (and yes I know that "most unique" is a nonsense term)

Synge it works by creating a worm hole that deposits you back on the course if you run through it fast enough.

We regularly have people get lost and confused in the spiral even if they just follow the path they will exit soon enough.

Rarest attended parkrun - Hilerod in Denmark, it came and it went all very quickly .

I've never met anyone else from the Uk who has done it

Lovely course, all offroad and had a good coffee afterwards

Cromhall is probably the hardest to get to in my local area. Although once it becomes your home parkrun it's much harder to get to any of the others.

The strangest thing about Somerdale for me was not so much the course layout itself but the fact you had no reference point to where you were in respect to the other runners.

Whenever you looked around, from about 2-3 minutes in, all you could see were people running in totally opposite directions from one another. Quite a weird thing to be in the middle of at the time.
