rvparkrun Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Sheffield Hallam @ Endcliffe cancelled this week due to Sheffield Pride. If anyone is planning to join us at RVp this week, or any other week, and you come by car, show your barcode at the gate on the way into parkrun, and you only pay a pound instead of five. Unfortunately, this discount doesn't work at other times. The park is really supportive, so we encourage anyone who has time, to join us for a coffee afterwards. Happy running.

sheff_chris Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Which do you think is the better of the Hillsborough or Hallam parkruns? I live between both and don't know which to go for... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouserat Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I've never done the Hillsborough Park run so can't really answer your question. But I've done the Hallam one quite a few times. The route's pretty good - two circuits around the park, a gentle climb following by a gentle run down each time. But Hallam is really, really busy. It's often a very slow / walking start. There tend to be quite a lot of dogs and pushchairs. It's often difficult to get past people, particularly running down Rustlings Road. If you want a gentle, relaxed, friendly Park Run, Hallam's fine. If you want to run at your own pace, push yourself to improve each week and try to run a pacy 5k, Hallam is just too busy.

RVp There's also free parking on Direct Cars side, allow 15 minutes to wander/jog round. The main car park gets busy now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
