parkrun elevations


The running wear website jegmar.com lists the locations for all the 458 parkruns in order of the elevation gained. It was nice to see that in first place (i.e. the flattest course) was Southsea at an elevation gained of just 8 feet, and where we take part in the Great South Run in seventeen days time. Aylesbury was the 84th flattest at an elevation of 34 feet.

We also found that we have run three of the fourteen hilliest parkruns. Tring is in 445th position with an elevation of 346 feet, Lyme Park at 453rd with 411 feet and last of all in 458th place is Lanhydrock in Cornwall with 453 feet. And I don't like hills!
