There’s a notion of doing some parkrun tourism as Saturday sessions (in place of the usual every third Saturday at Brockwell Park). There are 20+ Parkruns within striking distance of Clapham. In principle a schedule would be drawn up of, say, two Parkruns every month, subject to viable logistics and member enthusiasm a car or cars would leave Clapham Common in time to get to the target Parkrun. Note, this will mean an 8ish start and will get earlier as the parks get further away. Any takers?
Month: March 2015
