Ross-on-Wye parkrun

14/10/2026

😂 A tail walker, a car park marshal and four marshals walk into a bar… OUCH! They should’ve done the course inspection first!

(I’m here all day folks!)

🦺 WE NEED YOU! 🦺

🚶 Tail Walkers
🚗 Car Park Marshals
👋 Course Marshals

Fancy being one of our -vis heroes? No experience needed, just a smile and a bit of parkrun spirit! 👻 (no, not that kind, wait until Halloween)

🙌 Volunteer with us, we promise it’s less painful than walking into a bar! **

**although for legal reasons we have to say this is completely made up and it may indeed be mentally painful volunteering with us.

Sooooo if I have sold the above to you, get in touch.

📰 HOT OFF THE PRINTING PRESS! 📰

This week’s run report has landed!

Freshly printed, mildly sweaty and only slightly exaggerated… because what happens on the run stays in the run report!

Big thanks to Ailsa for putting pen to paper and keeping us all informed of this week’s running adventures.

Grab a cuppa ☕, have a read, and enjoy the latest instalment of “We definitely meant to run that far…”

Thanks, Ailsa! 💕
