Dulwich parkrun* has been chosen to participate in a pilot scheme, in partnership with Run Mummy Run (RMR)**, starting on 28 November, looking at ways to introduce and encourage more people to the fun of parkrun.


* Parkrun is a free, timed 5km event ? you can run, walk or jog. http://www.parkrun.org.uk/dulwich/

** Run Mummy Run (RMR) is an online community of women who run. http://www.runmummyrun.co.uk


I am the parkrun/RMR run buddy for Dulwich parkrun. I will be attending 2-3 parkruns each month, and will be the point of contact for new runners, particularly those who might be a bit nervous about attending on their own, or who don?t feel confident running 5k (don?t worry about being too slow, parkrun?s ethos is one of inclusivity ? it is a timed run, not a race). Our aim is to encourage more people (women, men and children) to attend parkrun. Children under the age of 11 must stay with their responsible adult.


The start area for Dulwich parkrun is on the main carriageway nearest to the Queen Mary?s Gate entrance (entrance off the South Circular, Dulwich Common). My meeting point will be near to the parkrun flag / bench, from 8:30am. I?ll be wearing a Run Mummy Run hoodie.


There is plenty of free parking at Dulwich park (enter via the Old College Gate entrance). Don?t forget to sign up for parkrun in advance of the event and print off your barcode. http://www.parkrun.org.uk/register/form/


To enable us to assess the success of the pilot, if you are attending parkrun as part of the RMR group and you are not already affiliated to a running club, please would you add Run Mummy Run as your running club details on your parkrun profile (women only, I?m afraid!) This will enable us to see how many participants of the pilot there are each week.

Just a reminder, if you are coming to Dulwich parkrun tomorrow, don't forget to register for parkrun and print off and bring along your barcode. Also, if you are not already affiliated to a running club, please add Run Mummy Run as your club so that we can use this to monitor the success of the pilot (women only). Thanks and hopefully see some of you tomorrow.

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      By Sue · Posted

      I know the couple you mean, and she has always been friendly and smiley when delivering to me, but obviously in a hurry, for all the reasons outlined in the thread. My gate is always open, however (unless someone coming to the house closes it when they leave). I can't see the point of gates that have to be opened and shut again every time someone comes to the house. It just seems a waste of time, and it's annoying if you are carrying stuff. And a closed gate  conveys a sort of "my house is my fortress" feel. To me, anyway.

      Thanks for posting this. Really interesting. It would be good if you added a star rating, so that it was easier to do comparisons / see what your top recommendations are. Great blog though!

      New Local Restaurant Reviews Website

      By Eats Dulwich · Posted

      Hi, Just a quick note to say it's six months since I launched Eats Dulwich. In that time I've reviewed 28 restaurants. Usually four or five a month except for a month when I came down with gout, which I guess is an occupational hazard. Don't say I don't suffer for my art. Early on someone – Sue, I think – asked me what I'm going to do when I've reviewed every restaurant in East Dulwich. I'm nowhere near that point, but what I have found is that a lot of new openings have tended to be in Rye Lane, so the site has expanded to cover SE15, hence the slight change of name (still haven't had any cease and desist letters from anything with a similar name).  Anyway, the site is still free, it would be great if as many readers as possible here can subscribe so that they automatically get new posts (when you try to subscribe the default might be paid subs but that's down to Substack, just tick the free option instead) as I don't post everything on EDF. Obviously you can get reviews elsewhere if you want, but I think this is the only proper site for local East Dulwich people written by a local East Dulwich person. If you like eating out please have a read. And if there are other places you think I should visit please mention them below and i'll do my best to try them.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      Can you explain what your point was, then? Because it isn't clear to me. No. Perhaps you could provide a link and explain its relevance? That would be helpful     Those figures suggest that over 10,000,000 voters were not "rejecting a far left party."
