What people say
“One of the toughest parkruns in the country, but a truly unique experience, running over sand dunes and along Woolacombe Beach. You won’t set a PB on this course (average times are around three to four minutes slower…”Nick · 5 stars
“We’d been warned about this parkrun well before we laced up — apparently it’s one of the five toughest in the UK. Naturally, we did our research the night before, watching YouTube videos that looked more like survival…”Paul Monaghan · 5 stars
