We don't have one. I contacted park run a while ago and they were thinking of starting one in Padarn country park in llanberis. Just wondering if anyone's involved in it or any other north (west) Wales park run?

You should be grateful you live where you live ......... if I could take my London wages and move up there, I'd be sorted. Why does the UK insist on having everything so London-centric ........ does my nut in.

"if I could take my London wages" may be where you're falling down.

I'm not complaining in any way, we love it here and chose to live here - the only real downside is we are a king way from family (Scotland). There's loads of bike paths along the coast to run along - the hills would be too much for me

I just fancied the idea of running with other peoe occasionally and I can't get to any of the local running clubs due to a combination of work/ children/ children's activities/ husband's work and the fact that they are all on weekday evenings. A Saturday/ Sunday morning, however, I could manage now and again and if we could take the kids along we could both manage it fairly regularly.

'a long way', not 'a king way'

Hi Shona, I'd be interested.

My nearest one is on the Wirral - 40+ miles away.

I'll have to dig back through my emails and check Seren.

Where are you K80? I think we're about 60miles from the Wirral, so you must be further east.

There's one in Liverpool - princes park. More or less the Wirral isn't it?

I worked with someone from the Wirral, I think they are called Wooly Backs or something ......... im sure someone from Liverpool can confirm or deny this.

Don't ask me - I'm forever getting lost on my long run. Are Liverpool and Wirral different places then?

Shona, I'm up in the hills of Denbighshire where the local currency is anything shiny
