I'm glad you enjoyed the Parkrun at Chopwell Wood, you do sometimes see wild deer walking around, but no one mentioned seeing them this week. I did mention the hills in the First Timers briefing this week, they are a challenge but you do get used to them if you run them regularly, honest. It would be great to see you at Chopwell again soon.

@abitrich68 I'm a bit biased, as I lived there for 9 years. I moved to Newcastle last year, as I got married this year and moved in with 'wor lass' as they say up here, in April. I come from Lincolnshire, but love living up here. Newbiggin is a great parkrun. Make sure that you gan for a pint or three at The Ink Spot. It's a craft ale bar and was my local when I lived in Newbiggin.
