This  coming Saturday, 13th September is the next of our social Saturdays this time at Druridge Bay, Morpeth. Usual info… Run/walk the course as you wish; the main point is to hang around afterward for a drink, cake or breakfast & have a natter. There is a cafe at the visitors centre. If you need to be away straight from the parkrun, that’s okay.. just enjoy the parkrun 😃 We do have our spot prizes to give away too 🙌 We encourage you to wear your Striders colours but this isn’t a requirement to join in. Also please note with a barcode displayed on the windscreen parking is free until 10:30am otherwise you pay to park. https://www.parkrun.org.uk/druridgebay/course/
