I have done 30 different locations at parkrun and want to add to that. The problem is that I have done all the ones that aren't too far away from me and the same from my parents. I sometimes (not all the time) drag my family along with me, for which I feel guilty, though they appear fine to do so. We usually have another reason for being in that area.
Obviously I know that they are friendly and welcoming so not worried about that, but I don't want to really go alone if I can help it. Friends don't seem to 'get' the love of parkrun so not up for coming too far. Even running friends.
I quite like the idea of meeting up with other parkrun tourists, doing the run and then having a coffee/breakfast after. Any ideas where I can look for such people? I've searched facebook groups, but not sure if I can find what I'm looking for. Also while I don't mind getting up super early and travelling a bit to get to them, I also don't want it to take up all day so will still be in the same area of the country. Northern England.
So do I just suck it up and go on my own or try to find people to go with?
