Nonsuch Park was totally bereft of enthusiastic park runners today due to further cancellations by the organisers. This’ll be the third week in a row the torrential rain has ruined their fun, however three hundred or so runners stomping in the grounds turning it to porridge is not the best look for a park, so […]
