Lincoln Park Run

When I first started running at Park Runs I stayed local within 17-20 miles of my home address. My home is ideally situated between 4 Park Runs which are within the above mileage range, these being: Clumber Park: Scunthorpe: Normanby Hall, Doddington Hall. From my 113 Total Park Runs I have ran 82 of these split between the aforementioned 4 Park Runs. Clumber Park leads the way with 35.

A few years ago we purchased a Caravan for family holidays which we have now swapped for a motorhome. As we travelled around the country on our holidays I made a point of finding the nearest Saturday morning Park Run to our touring base. I have now managed to visit a total of 28 different Park Run Venues and I thought it would be fantastic if I could reach that magic number of 50 different locations.

So this is my new series of attempting to Target 50 different Park Run Venues. With 28 already completed, I have chosen Lincoln Park Run as my 29th in a different venue and this will be my 114th all together. Lincoln Park Run is held in Boultham Park, which is situated about 1.5 miles south of Lincoln City Centre. The Park was opened to the Public in 1929 and about 5 years ago the park was subject of 2.5 million heritage lottery funding upgrading all aspects of the park and adding additional features too.
