A course orientation brief takes place each week at 8.55am.

Thanks to a regular band of enthusiastic volunteers, the course is well marshalled.

Please note that due to recent weather conditions, the grass course is often slightly damp in one or two places.

Event updates are posted on the Pastures Parkrun Facebook page. Registration is free and only needs to be done once at parkrun.org.uk.
