Oi oi. The first ever Oxford parkrun launches on November 5th, in ... Oxford! The route starts and runs round Cutteslowe Park in north Oxford, exact course and parkrun webpage still pending. So if you've been hanging around for ages waiting for a parkrun to start in Oxford, I reckon the Oxford parkrun will suit you quite nicely. In the meantime, go to Abingdon.

5 quid says some joker pushes a penny-for-a-guy guy around the course.

Hey there - be great to see you! No, they're still sorting a pukka page out. I'll post it here when it's live though. I'm not one of the organisers, just a volunteer, but think I might be the only Fetchie. Darn it my work-break-timer has just gone off, so I must step away from the screen ...

Cool well let us know (please make it near the station for us parkrun tourists using public transport ;)). I look forward to adding another to my collection. I cant do Abingdon as its impossible without a car but Oxford should be fine

If you're on the train, buses every couple of minutes from the town centre take you up to the start in about 10-15 minutes. The race details http://www.fetcheveryone.com/viewracedetails.php?id=61726 show you whereabout it is.
