A PARKRUN is not everyone's idea of an ideal Christmas Day or New Year's Day but for enthusiasts it is as traditional as a turkey dinner.
The weekly 5K with more than a dozen events in the county of Cheshire is famous for the festive events on December 25 and January 1.
It is important to be on the ball with where is doing both days, where is doing one day, and where is doing neither day.
A 9am start time is the norm but it is best to double check the start time on each parkrun's page on social media or on the website. All of the below are subject to the weather conditions.
