Will there be anywhere to safely leave a rucksack though whilst doing the parkrun?

I'm not sure running 5k is necessarily the best preparation for a R15!
Soon to be yet another forum train driver

When I did Pymmes parkrun before the last R15, they were more than happy to look after my bag.

They had a baggage area at Nonsuch Park, but had a big sign saying "unsecured baggage", but there was shed loads of rucksacks there!

Ideally for me, I should be able to reach the Parkrun from the 0659 departure/0738 arrival from Milton Keynes to Euston. I don't want to have to get the 0622 if I can help it.

I know! Rather different from 1 lap MK... I doubt i'd like 5 laps but i'd give it a try just to see what it's like.

I made Pymmes in plenty of time last time, so there are definitely more options than Highbury. Pymmes is still 3 laps though.

All set to do the Guildford Park run on the 9th as a warm up for the FNC on the 13th. It's been 27 years since I ran round that park whilst at school. Me thinks it going to be a lot harder than it used to be.
26 miles 385yards in 4h 14m 40s.

Nozzacooks official time from Saturday was slower than his unofficial Parkrun time, so now he has an official time, does that go into the league over his unofficial one?

I'll be back at some point. I can't run at the moment because of a knee problem
