Durlston Country Park parkrun
Poole AC introduced this event into the Multi-Terrain championships in 2022, and due to popular demand (?) it was retained in the calendar for 2023. What a great event at one of the UK’s toughest parkruns. The steep gradients didn’t deter our runners though; we got some fantastic results. Well done to Barry Miller who was first to finish, and the nine runners who achieved PBs. We had six people running this parkrun for the first time. Special congratulations to Gill Cook, who clocked up her 500th parkrun.
