About this parkrun
Mar 2012 - One lap on a mixture of paths. Deer sightings common.njosmith 10th Jan 2019
Single lap, 30% tarmac/30% grass/40% trail path. Undulating! Very narrow start pen. Consistent downhill for 2km to start which you have to make back up...
Also - deer!

A single lap, really a parkrun of two halves as the first half is fairly flat on a long straight alongside the road and the second is undulating in woodland. Narrow starting funnel. Public transport: Bus 371 to American University.

Parking via Richmond Gate. Careful of the bicycles if you drive there it's like being in a Zwift course. The parkrun is 1 lap on tarmac, grass and gravel gently undulating and uphill finish. Road shoes are fine. Outdoor cafe options in the park.

One if the hillier parkruns very scenic busy with every possible terrain covered in equal measure.

A well organised run.
Narrow and crowded starting funnel: 22:08 "gun" time, vs 21:59 watch time, vs ~21:50 from the start line!
A very nice run on asphalt and gravelled paths: first 2 km mostly downhill (48 m), then mostly uphill (52 m)!

In the world famous Richmond Park. Parkrun of two halves. Out in woodland. Back on grass. Or is it other way round.
