THE Parkrun phenomenon has arrived in South East Cornwall with a bang!

In recent years, Parkrun events, which combine running and socialising, have attracted millions of registered participants across the UK and abroad.

On Saturday, the first Mount Edgcumbe 5km Parkrun was held on the Rame Peninsula – and 131 runners took part.

See the Cornish Times tomorrow (Friday, February 5) for more pictures and a report of the event.
