Flanker7 Posted November 27, 2016 Author Share Posted November 27, 2016 Sheffield & Rotherham parkrun attendances for 26th/27th November 2016. 80 - Concord 204 - Graves Park 104 - Graves junior's, New attendance record. 200 - Hillsborough 62 - Castle 570 - Hallam Total - 1,220 178 - Rother Valley 60 - Clifton Park Total - 238 Overall total = 1,458 The recent inaugural events in Sweden and Canada started without a points competition. So it comes as no surprise that parkrun HQ are doing away with the points competition from February 2017.

Runningman Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 I went along to Graves Park this morning and what an uplifting experience ! Kids enjoying themselves, out of bed early on a Sunday morning, not one of them holding a piece of technology. Shaping their future under the guidance of their parents. Could I have seen a future champion ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flanker7 Posted December 5, 2016 Author Share Posted December 5, 2016 (edited) Sheffield & Rotherham parkrun attendances for 3rd/4th December 2016. 83 - Concord 156 - Graves Park 58 - Graves junior's 172 - Hillsborough 52 - Castle 457 - Hallam Total - 978 144 - Rother Valley 65 - Clifton Park Total -209 Overall total = 1,187 Percy Pud seems to have had an effect on attendances. Both course records were broken in the prestigious local event. £1,000 went to Mohammad Abu-Rezeq, 29:57, and Rio 2016 Olympic 5000m finalist Eilish McColgan, 32:32. The times achieved would have beaten the best times at all local events, twice consecutively. Mohammed was the epitome of consistency passing me at 3k in exactly 9 minutes and completing each and every kilometer in 3 minutes! ---------- Post added 12-12-2016 at 08:18 ---------- Sheffield & Rotherham parkrun attendances for 10th/11th December 2016. 80 - Concord 192 - Graves Park 79 - Graves junior's 177 - Hillsborough 78 - Castle 530 - Hallam Total - 1136 156 - Rother Valley 65 - Clifton Park Total - 221 Overall total = 1,357 Edited December 11, 2016 by Flanker7 update number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

achorste Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Castle is doing a parkrun on Christmas day this year IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whoosh77 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 (edited) Castle is doing a parkrun on Christmas day this year IIRC. No Castle are not doing a Christmas Day parkrun. Concord are though, as usual, with Barnsley I think the other nearest apart from Poolsbrook. Can't link at the minute so Google search 'parkrun Christmas compendium' Edited December 16, 2016 by Whoosh77 Added further information Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paolo Coopio Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Does anyone know anything about the Resolution Run at Rother Valley in January. Very sketchy details on their website. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas about the 12k route that goes on the rougher terrain paths around the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
