Saturday mornings don’t get much better than this.
A group of Carn Runners kicked off the weekend with a run at Penrose parkrun, enjoying the fresh air, friendly atmosphere, and shared miles that make parkrun such a favourite.
As always, there was a great mix of paces and approaches — some pushing the effort, others enjoying a steady run and a chat — but everyone came together at the finish, which is exactly what these mornings are all about.
parkrun First, Breakfast Second 😄
Of course, no Carn Runners parkrun outing would be complete without a post-run reward. After the miles were done and the watches stopped, the group headed off for a well-earned Weatherspoons breakfast.
Good food, plenty of laughs, and the chance to sit down together after a run is all part of the experience. It’s these simple social moments — chatting over coffee, swapping run stories, and planning the next outing — that make running with a club so enjoyable.
The Best Kind of Weekend Start
Combining parkrun with breakfast has become a bit of a winning formula. It’s welcoming, relaxed, and a great way for newer members to get involved without any pressure.
Whether you come for the running, the company, or the breakfast (or all three), mornings like this sum up what Carn Runners is about — running together and enjoying the social side just as much as the miles.
Well done to everyone who took part, and here’s to many more parkruns and post-run breakfasts ahead 💙💛
