Many thanks to Warren Harrison for his run report for out event on Saturday which can be found here: https://www.parkrun.org.uk/haughmondhill/news/

Also, thanks goes to all 159 participants and our 26 hi-vis heroes without whom the event could not have gone ahead. It was lovely to see people come from near and far to celebrate their milestones and we welcome first-time, both running and volunteering, to the parkrun family!

Well done to everyone who came to a spooky Haughmond Hill for a Hallowe’en parkrun. Bit misty and overcast so sadly not the best day for a view of the Shropshire hills.
Results have been processed but the emails appear to have gotten least in the veil between the two worlds. The results are on our website and the parkrun app is showing them too!
Hope to see you next week for a sparktacular 🎇 event

After our unfortunate cancellation last week due to high winds we are back on ready for a Hallowe'en event tomorrow!
Come join us in either your best fancy dress, worst fancy dress or no fancy dress! Although you might want to bring a pair of gloves.

As always please:
*Do not park on the road outside the car park - it's not safe and not pleasant for the local residents
*Please listen to our First Timer's Briefing or the Run Director briefing for important safety notices
*Please visit the wonderful Haughmond Hill Cafe - I can personally vouch for their Chocolate Chai (can't wait for another one tomorrow!)
*Don't forget your barcode - we do accept digital ones, but make sure you have your phone, watch, other device for us to scan it for you

Most of all have fun!!!

We have availability for Duke of Edinburgh students to complete their Volunteering section with us on a Saturday morning, from 8.30 a.m., either starting immediately or over the next few weeks. If you know of any young person who is looking for a placement please email [email protected]

We are sorry to announce that tomorrow's event (24th October) has been cancelled due to the site being unavailable.

Forestry England closed the site today due to the weather forecast and won't reopen it until all the trails have been checked. Unfortunately this will not be completed in time for our event.

All of that doesn't stop us being excited for our Halloween event next Saturday. Please get in touch if you would like to Volunteer at any of our upcoming events, here is the future roster:
