I did my first couple of 10k runs with people and I really enjoyed the whole atmosphere

Ah I mean at Glasto. Get a much better explore on your own. Running with that crowd is too much for me, may as well be walking around in the fest.

Tempted by the Thursday run tbh. The missus has notions of heading to do parkrun at sheppton mallet but hard to see that happening (unless Fridays headliner is total dogshit and there鈥檚 no one else half decent playing elsewhere)

Friday鈥檚 headliner being dreadful is very possible. No one half decent playing elsewhere where is more or less impossible

Let her do it. It's a big f**k NO from me. Go and get yourself a lie in and a brekkie. There will be 50 decent things to do Friday night.

I'm all for running onsite, but the parkrun sounds like a shocking idea tbh! The thought of waking up in the middle of Glastonbury (both in time and space) and thinking "yep, I'm leaving for a while to go offsite and do something I do elsewhere" just feels nuts. 

 

The onsite run n Thursday would at least be taking in the site, the vibe, the people...really struggle to see what parkrun at Shepton Mallet would bring!

 

But as all with all things, if its not hurting anyone then you do you. Or indeed let Mars Daimo do Mrs Daimo!

Better check in advance it'll be on, being so close to the site all the volunteers may be at the festival.

With walking and dancing for 5 days surely most folk get adequate exercise and fresh air to keep them on an even keel

But if I don鈥檛 record a Glastonbury run on Strava, how will all my Strava friends know I鈥檓 at Glastonbury? 馃槣

 

As a big Parkrun fan I draw the line at leaving the site for a run though. Can鈥檛 think of a worse idea tbh. I like to pretend the outside world doesn鈥檛 exist when i鈥檓 there.
