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!

I’ve did the Southside Six before(God rest its soul), it finishes in QP, and it’s hilly iirc.

It looks like ... not quite Drumchapel, but a solid second place.

I find that the Fetch figures almost always overstate the elevation: nonetheless, it looks like over 100m of climb.

And given that it is three laps and a wee bit to finish, it looks like Glasgow's langest parkrun ;-)

Thanks Dvorak. Looks a bit like Tollcross without as much of a flat bit.

QP Parkrun is going to be hilly - don't think that's in doubt. It'll be tarmac though, so Drumchapel will, for me, still be the tougher one.

That does look an interesting race, Ally :-)

Edinburgh parkrun 10th anniversary this week. Anyone thinking of going? I might, subject to weather. Not been on over 4 years (when i met Fetch and Katie, and the Jigses).

Glasgow having been going for nearly a year, parkrun was reasonably weel kent among Central Belt runners, so 204 turned up to the Edinburgh inaugural. 25 or those have recorded 250 or more runs (including a 502 and a 499 - wonder where they'll be on Saturday :-) ) - and 30 have never ever recorded another parkrun.
