Where's Cross Flatts? It's not another in Leeds is it?

Yes, off Dewsbury Rd, Beeston. Can be seen from South Leeds Stadium.

When with my previous club, I was going to design a 5k route around Cross Flatts Park to complement our original Hyde Park 5k, but I considered it too small and would require too many laps if pavements only were to be used.

Plus, the murder there put us off!

So good luck to them on that - how long before someone crops up with the Pudsey Park run?

I do Bradford Parkrun on a Saturday, due to the fact before I moved to Pudsey I am a born and bred Bradford Lad. I also think it's nice and challenging, with the uphill finish. Often wondered if Pudsey Parkrun would ever start up. Is it something the pacers would look into helping organise? Never jogged round Pudsey park, is it even big enough to take an unmonotonous 5k? If it's something the Pacers were ever going to look into I'd certainly be happy to help.

My own view is that there in no need for another Parkrun in Leeds at the moment. I certainly won't be venturing to Cross Flatts, I work down there all week already so won't be going there on a weekend. What we do need to something East of Bradford or out Shipey/Bingley way.

I'll keep plodding around Bradford for the foreseeable future, nice friendly bunch and the best Parkrun course I've run at.
