fetcheveryone Tum feeling really tight from about 3k onwards, so I dropped the pace and came home safely, and just about managed a smile by the end. I'll be back!

hatterfan A pretty normal run for me this morning. Perfect conditions for getting a PB but I was worried about my slight hamstring injury so didn't push it at the beginning when I perhaps should have done!

About this parkrun

First ever parkrun for me. Of special note is the zig zag climb up some big steps before a nice lap of the lake. Haven't been back since Bedford parkrun started, but I remember it with fondness, especially when there was snow and the lake froze over.

An award winning single lap parkrun around Willen Lake - without a doubt road shoes.

A lovely one lap course entirely on good paths. One steep zig-zag after one mile the only climb. Is popular, can get congested.

Hills of Death (HOD) 22nd Mar 2019

One lap course regularly voted best/prettiest parkrun. 600ish runners every week. Single lap. All relatively flat except the famous 'zigzags' just after mile 1 which are the disabled access to the park. Loads to see. Definitely road shoes

Tough first half and absolutely stunning second half, what more could you want
Krispy 2nd Jul 2019

Big event, including runs along canal towpath, some steep zig-zags up a hill, then a downhill section before finishing with a lap of Willen Lake. Bandstand finish. There have been different versions of this parkrun, the current route is the best.

big event scenic park & lakeside, long queues for an expensive coffee
Foxy 25th Dec 2023

Scenic route taking in the canal and lake. Tends to get a bit bottle necked at the start so unless you're near the front you can lose time there. Zig zags also slow you down a bit but from there it's downhill and round lake. Can get very busy too.
