The Park Run.

Our son is training for the Brighton Marathon, as part of his build up he runs in the nationwide Park Run. Throughout the country there are 5Km events in certain parks which all start at 9 am, they are free to enter (donations are appreciated) and are organized and marshalled by volunteers.
Once a runner has registered, an individual is issued with a personal bar code and can then take part in any event countrywide.
As Dave was at our place for the week end we went to Cuerden Valley Park. He was a top ten finisher.
Another blip opportunity.
