Fell Foot cancelled on advice from National Trust - almost handy since the nominal RD is snowed in and I'm the only alternative in the county at present. Currently contemplating Lancaster - or using the time to go for a longer run.

We are having another look at Stratford tomorrow. Even if we could fudge an all grass lots of laps type thing not sure I’d want anyone volunteering standing out for all that time. Decisions.

Having run the Bedworth test course I can’t see how it would be on there are some quite steep slopes I wouldn’t fancy in these conditions. However if they are on and we are not - I may well go myself.

Fingers crossed for you MN.

At the moment it seems to be about a 50/50 split between which South Wales parkruns have already cancelled and which are waiting to see what happens tomorrow.

We're going to check the park tomorrow. We've had snow showers but it's not really lying. It's bitterly cold though and I'd worry about volunteers standing out in it.

MN I hope you get to do your 250th and I get to do my 50th!

As far as I know, York is planning to go ahead, but possibly on a grass alternative course if the tarmac is too icy. Am volunteering, which I’m sure will be fun...

My closest parkruns in N Yorks are apparently still on, find it hard to believe they will take place and I'm certainly not intending to go along to find out!
