Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Ally-C I did Carlisle parkrun back in 2019, I remember it was a nice one. Much like Stonehaven as it's 3 laps on varied terrain.

When we went it was their summer course which is 3 laps on a mix of tarmac and grass. Rather more convoluted than the winter course which was on their webpage, with a few tight turns and steady climbs. Friendly group, as are most parkruns. Don't recall toilets or a cafe (think it was closed). Short bus ride from town, but the bus was running rather late and we missed the briefing.

I’m not sure that comparison is a good thing or a bad thing V. 😆

I’ve ran it three times and volunteered there once. It’s hard but not a Faskally, Queen’s or Drumchapel.

I honestly liked Queens and didn’t mind Faskally but I do think Stoney is harder.
