Outstandingly poor move by the local council. 
As a major fan of parkrun anything that can get 90,000 people running or walking 5k each week should be applauded and helped as much as possible, not seen as a form of cash cow. |
Spot on. Parkruns are massively popular and this would be an fantastic way to put people off from taking up running.
