Parkrun Challenge

The Parkrun Challenge 2026 kicks off on Saturday 17th January at Rushcliffe.

As always, you don’t have to be in for the competition element to come to any or all of the
parkruns. Just arrive at 08:50 if you want to be in the photo and for some pre parkrun chat.
And please ensure your parkrun details include Holme Pierrepont as your club, so I can find
you on results day..
