    parkrun Porterstown is starting on Saturday 17 October at 9:30am. It will be almost 3 laps of the park.

    I run at parkrun Hartstown and it is great. Volunteering is fun too.

    Cheers

    Should be good. Ive done the run in hartstown, its very well organised.

    3 laps can get boring in porterstown when you plod along on your own, heres hoping that its good fun with a crowd.

    Done this this morning, really enjoyed it.

    Nice to have another option locally, well done to the people who set it up and the volunteers.

    Busy little park on a saturday morning.

    Was this a problem? Did you have to dodge people on the paths? (especially at the car park stretch)

    Parking was grand, i got there just after 9:20 or so and there were some spaces left in the car park. Church overflow was also open.

    Parking (considerably) in Annfield/Fernleigh is also an option.

    Might give this a go Saturday as a change from Hartstown. I'll be interested how close I can to my Hartstown PB @18:50 considering that IIRC there are more inclines in Porterstown.
