This weeks 5k parkrun in the Glen Park on the north side of Cork City attracted a field of 109 runners on what was a lovely mild morning.
This was actually my first time ever being in the Glen Park itself. Considering its proximity to the northern ring road, the park was suprisingly quiet and early on a Saturday morning, the only people about were those walking dogs or going for a stroll. It really is a nice spot for a parkrun.
The Glen is kind of one of those parks where a lot of people might know where it is but wouldn't give it a second thought. If you're looking for something different, I'd encourage you to visit it and try it out the parkrun for yourself.
