HOLYROOD PARKRUN REVIEW Event #72 - My Scottish parkrun Debut!

HOLYROOD PARKRUN REVIEW Event #72 - My Scottish parkrun Debut!

Holyrood Parkrun! A loop all on smooth hardstanding paths with steep uphill and downhill sections. The run is in Holyrood Park, Edinburgh. The course is run entirely on tarmacroads / paths. Some sections of the course may accumulate mud, leaves and puddles after rain! Join me as I provide an in-depth review of Holyrood Parkrun experience.

Holyrood Parkrun is a single loop on the closed road around Holyrood Park, starting next to St Margaret’s Loch. The surface is all tarmac. There is a steep 1.5km uphill near the start and a steep 1.5km downhill in the second half of the course.

Dogs and buggies/prams are allowed at this parkrun, and there are toilets just 300m from the start / finish line! The route is all on hardstanding, therefore, road shoes are reccomended. In terms of how busy the parkrun is, it is very busy, however, with the route being on roads there is plenty of room to run and overtake at the start. There are on average 392 runners/joggers/walkers a week. With it being a fairly hilly parkrun, it does not have the potential for a PB!

The atmosphere was great and there were some great volunteers to keep you going! This is the 12th parkrun I have recorded on the channel of which you can find a playlist of them below:

I will be doing parkruns all over the UK and rest of the world! Every Saturday I take part in a 5K run trying my hardest to get under 20 mins. Holyrood Parkrun is a great run to tick off the "H" on the alphabeteer challenge and it is the first "H" I have done! Let me know if you have ever completed the course. Hope you enjoy the video.
