VICTORIA JUBILEE JUNIOR PARKRUN CANCELLATION NOTICE ![]()
![]()
Unfortunately, our inaugural Junior parkrun event has been cancelled due to icy conditions still on the course route. With the temperatures continuing to drop, we are not expecting the course to get any better before tomorrow morning so would rather make the decision early. ![]()

Whilst we are very disappointed given the time and effort over the last year to get a start date, the safety of juniors, volunteers and anybody else present on the day is of the highest importance to us. ![]()
![]()
We now look forward to next Sunday (12th) which will now be our inaugural event, as long as the weather starts to play nice! ![]()

We hope to see you all there next Sunday![]()
