I'm pretty sure I ran the Keswick inaugural?

Closest I came to doing an inaugural was Woolwich - we volunteered at the test event, but passed on the inaugural and went to event #2.

I guessed at 4 but turns out I’ve done 7. Aberdeen (my first ever parkrun) and hazlehead (my home). Then Crathes which is one of my closest (though I’ve never been back since!). Montrose, Elgin and Aviemore were probably on the edge of annoying inaugural hunting but none looked like being too inundated. and finally bois de boulogne in Paris- as my mum was in the core team getting it set up.

I have three, Aberdeen, Stonehaven and Crathes (I volunteered and set it up). I will be going to one starting next year, this is to support the ED who has been working with us at Crathes.

@Metro_Nome it would be lovely to see you at Crathes again sometime.

@Lesley C I know I really need to come. Should try in the next few weeks while I’m still walking as I’m terrible at running on the trails. Do you get many walkers?

CAZ, I was invited to that (and the test event) but didn’t go to either. I wasn’t such a fanatic in 2015! I should have gone.

Just the one inaugural for me and that was closer to home than my then 'home' pr, and I'm now on the core team.

No inaugural ran, but volunteered at the first in Inverurie.
