PARKRUN REVIEW: Endcliffe Parkrun - Event 643
Hello from Sheffield and my first ever Parkrun here!
I loved this event. Such a scenic park and we were greeted with wonderful conditions.
I'd recommend this to everyone. My video is a bit longer this week because I am still running slowly, so please forgive me. I am working hard to fix my hip, slowly but surely.
If you want further details from the run, you can head to my Strava here -

PARKRUN REVIEW: Wetherby Parkrun - Event #372
Переглядів 5662 дні тому
Hello from Wetherby parkrun! Many know this location for its service station, but little is known about Wetherby town. What a treat we have here. Storm Darragh had parkruns dropping all over the country, it was great that Wetherby decided on Friday night that they'd be going ahead regardless! Well done to the volunteers today, absolute troopers! Hope you enjoy it! If you want further details fr...
PARKRUN REVIEW: Marshall Drive Pakrun - Event #228

Hello from my NENDY and my last parkrun in the north east! Marshall Drive has been a run I've been trying to save for the end of this year, and it didn't disappoint. The weather, runners, and volunteers today made this place incredibly welcoming and I enjoyed my run around here despite my dodgy hip. The hill and downhill make this place a pleasant little challenge and something you can push you...
PARKRUN REVIEW: Hartlepool Parkrun - Event #480
Переглядів 38721 день тому
Hello from Hartlepool parkrun! Usually one of the quickest parkruns in the country with only the wind to worry about when deciding to go for a PB or not! But Storm Bert and the Arctic front had other ideas this weekend. With parkruns dropping all over the country, it was great that Hartlepool could go ahead with its slightly warmer air temperatures. The sleet and snow whacking us in the face on...

Hello from North Yorkshire and one of my favourite running routes. I've always wanted to show off the incline and what better way to do it than make my very own video about it. This hill is often spoke about in hushed tones, simply running to the top is considered an achievement in itself. The record times are averaging 10min/mile pace.. easy right? Please give it a go and let me know how you g...

Hello from a stunning day in The Lake District! One week after Fell Foot's 10-year birthday I am delighted to have had such lovely conditions to run in, this might have even been the best I've ever seen The Lakes looking.

Hello from Inverness and Torvean Parkrun! This weekend, there were over double the average number of runners because it was the Baxter's 10K and marathon. The volunteers handled it effortlessly.

    Thank you very much for visiting us here at Endcliffe Parkrun, as a volunteer at this parkrun, it was a pleasure having you come and we look forward to welcoming you back again next time you come over, I was the next scanner along when you scanned your barcode, and also please consider volunteering at some point, as these runs cannot go ahead without the required amount of volunteers.

    You can also park at bankfoot farm (free parking) and get to the incline from there (about 3km?) It brings u to the incline from the opposite way you did so you come from kildale/ captain cooks direction. I've never yet even managed to run a quarter of the way up without stopping yet. Got my time from 30 min down to 17 min though so I'm getting there

    • @EndorphinEmpire
      @EndorphinEmpire Місяць тому

      This is good to know! I’ve only ever ran the route from Clay Bank car park and it’s around a 12km loop. A quarter is still impressive! I think getting to the gate is by far one of the biggest mental hurdles. After that it’s pure grit and determination haha

    • @leebailey287

I honestly have zero idea where I’ll end up each week, but it’s getting harder and harder to get to one in a reasonable amount of time 😂 I think we both understand how this feels by this point! I think I’ve got 21 until my Cowell, so both of us will have it done next year. Where are you heading this weekend?

So tomorrow I’ll head to West Yorkshire as I’ve been making my way through PR’s in Bradford and Leeds. If you want inspiration / a mission have a look at Paul Freyne 700+ events.

    Enjoyed the content. Came as a surprise as this would be good up your sleeve if, heaven forbid, no parkrun video was possible. A familiar format to the video and music to the run section was good. It felt chilled with the history lesson too! Important for a channel to have a core, but it is an endorphin empire so worth the channel pushing out to different runs and walks - especially as the views and weather are encouraging!

    • @EndorphinEmpire

      Thanks Jason!! I’ve made a self imposed rule not to tinker too much until I get to 100 videos. The process is getting much quicker and easier now which is good! I’m still clueless though. Eventually a new parkrun every Saturday won’t be feasible, so I have to start branching out a bit! Glad you enjoyed my history lesson too. Appreciate your comment as well.

      Thank you! The T-shirt is from a company called Sprinters Printers in Middlesbrough. He’s a runner and has made a fair few parkrun barcode T-shirts so he’s worth checking out :)

    Those cameras on the sticks... I got the impression that someone overtook you just after the finish line to stole your token 🤣 But then I noticed the t-shirt...

    Excellent! I really liked Cross Flatts a few weeks ago. So convenient to park, friendly, and the 'Travelator' mini-hill really makes you dig in. Is that now all Leeds parkruns bar Middleton & Bramley? Tip for Bramley, I noticed a house on Broad Lane not far from the pedestrian entrance (good for parking too) that had a sign up selling cakes on a Saturday morning. Can't remember if there was carrot cake.

    Great vid Grant, think everyone is ill at the moment. I'm definitely under the weather. Looked like a lovely parkrun, definitely getting colder up North by the looks of it. Still not too bad down South, different climate ;). Well done on completing the Chester Marathon too! 😄

    Another great run review... and just a week after a marathon! I don't know how you do it - but so grateful you do - and hope you are fully recovered soon. Ashington gets a new national rail service from Newcastle soon (now expected mid-December 2024) ... with any luck there will be a train early enough for parkrunners.
