Due to the economic impact of Covid-19 we have taken the difficult decision to permanently suspend GRL events. We're truly sorry to shut down this popular series. We want to thank everyone who has been involved in GRL over the years. Full statement here: greatrunlocal.org/news/events-su…
📢Please see our official update regarding the Coronavirus #COVID19 ➡️greatrunlocal.org/news/covid-19-… We are in close contact with Public Health England and will continue to monitor the situation.
We're excited to announce that we will be working with @GWK_BIGLocal to bring you a new, free, weekly, timed run in the North East 🙌🏻 🕤 Set to take place Every Sunday, 9:30am 🎉 Launch Date TBC Contact [email protected] if you'd like to be a part of the volunteer team 😁
There's a new Great Run Local heading to the North East 🏃🏻♀️🏃🏻 Stay Tuned 👀 #FridayVibes
Great Run Local Ley Hill is set to run its 200th event tomorrow 👊🏻 Join the team for a morning of running, celebrations and of course, cake! 🥳🏃♂️🏃♀️🎂 Here's to many more events 👏🏻 #FridayFeeling
Our Bristol Team👊🏻 Join them Every Sunday, 9:30am at the Old Bristol Airport Runway (Hengrove Park) 👉🏻 bit.ly/2R0mfaT
Share the love with your training buddies this #ValentinesDay and tag your partner in crime 👊🏻💙
**EVENT CANCELLED SUN 9th FEB** We are pretty hardcore at Burrs but for the safety & welfare of both the runners & volunteer marshals we are going to cancel our organised run today. If you wish to run yourself you do so at your own risk. Stay safe out there today #StormCiara
Lots of cancellations at GRL events tomorrow due to some crazy winds and weather conditions. Check event Facebook pages please for event cancellations....
Thanks to all of our #volunteers, not just today but every single week, who make the event possible! @GreatRunLocal
We celebrate another event birthday this Sunday as Great Run Local #Burrs Country Park turns 5 years old 🥳 Join the team for a day of walking, jogging, running and of course, celebrating 💃🕺
If you're in Birmingham this weekend for the #nationalrunningshow, stretch your legs out Sunday morning at GRL Edgbaston. 📍Edgbaston Reservoir 🕤9:30am
We're off to the @nationalrunshow 🤩 Come & say Hello 👋🏻 (location M18), to find out more about our weekly running & volunteering opportunities 👟 🗣 Chat to the team, let them know where you’d like to see a new run, or even try to win some #GreatRunLocal merchandise! 🎉
From 2014 until now! It's a struggle to fit everyone in the photo these days! Thanks to all the runners and volunteers who have helped to grow Great Run Local #Gibside over its 6 year journey. Let's celebrate the events birthday in style this Sunday 🎈🎉
On the most depressing day of the year, let’s use the Great Run Local community to support each other on this #BlueMonday 👫 RT if you're there to support someone's goals in 2020💙
Unfortunately the weather is not on our side today! The 2k finish line is completely frozen solid and is just too dangerous to run on. The small loop also has some areas where ice stretches across the whole path. We therefore have to take the decision to cancel. Stay safe today.
'I don't care if Monday's Blue... It's #Friday, I'm in love 💗' Who's ready for the weekend!?
Looking for new running kit to help you tackle those extra miles? 🧐 Make the most of @sportsshoes_com January sale before it's too late! And if you've got a GRL wristband, keep an eye out for your next result text for an extra 10% off ✔️ #TuesdayTreat
