Everyone reported it to be as firm as it's ever been despite the rain in previous days, so good for a fast time. Amazing watching the fast lads and lasses, they just seem to float over it, no matter what the conditions. And great to see juniors going so well.

Since 2018 or 19, slightly different finish, back towards the start, not uphill all the way to the pavilion. But same route otherwise. :-) G

Thanks K5 Gus! And HappyG.

The section around your 3 mile marker was really boggy last week.

Any of our NE correspondents have any thoughts on whether Aberdeen Parkrun will go ahead on Saturday? πŸ˜€

50/50 shout i'd say. the prom itself will likely be fine but the start area might not clear quickly enough unless the temperatures start to turn PDQ.

doubt HH will be on if i'm honest, although i haven't been up that way this week, think a couple of others here are nearer so more suitably qualified to comment

Not been to beach or HH last couple days. Just looked at Aberdeen city webcam for the beach and it’s still looking like snow is still there on both upper and lower prom. Would say snow melted a bit today but going to freeze overnight.

Very early course inspection of Hazlehead tonight, it was lovely running yesterday, but if it gets slushy then freezes it's deadly....

it will cancel in good time, if it does.

No idea re Stonehaven, but one of us will check the park tomorrow. The pavements and roads here are lethal at the moment so I'm not hopeful. I'm so sick of this weather!

I’m trying to get 40 Parkruns this year & will be near Laurencekirk this weekend. Fingers crossed that something will go ahead.
