Hello,

Do they have anywhere to leave bags etc at the parkruns? Do people have to carry a bag whilst they run?

The start point and the finish funnel will be near each other, and somewhere near them will be the designated point for leaving bags. This might be just in the ground, or on a piece of tarpaulin (usually blue) or whatever. It's not closely policed, but there will be marshalls nearby, so people who do not look like runners behaving normally for dropping/picking up should be challenged. Run Directors will scoop up items left behind, so if you forget something there's a fair chance you'll be reunited.

But it would be unwise to leave high value items, but money/keys/phone should fit in a belt.

I usually take my inhaler and water with me. If you’re walking there then you’ll warm up enough without a jacket I’d imagine, and if you’re driving/cycling can you leave it there?

I would take your inhaler with you, you might not be close to the bags all the time.

Just a jacket, bottle of water and my asthma inhaler. I'll leave money at home.

What are you planning on taking in a bag?

At ours, belongings can be left in big plastic buckets. I wouldn’t leave anything valuable.
