We knew this was going to be tough. Reports from other visitors suggested Marshall Drive was all about hills and mud. A look at the relief map showed four sharp, nasty-looking points of elevation on a four-lap circuit. A closer look suggested that not a yard of the course was actually going to be flat. Suddenly, I had an idea why this is one of the smaller parkruns in the region, typically attracting a couple of dozen intrepid runners to a playing field in a village near Saltburn.

There aren’t many British parkruns in the shadow of a ski slope. But when Silksworth colliery closed down in 1971, the regeneration of the site saw a former hive of industry transformed into a leisure complex.

When the town makes an impression beyond its boundaries, it tends to be about a perpetually struggling football team (not even Brian Clough managed to win anything here).

This was a first for me: a parkrun that crosses a national boundary. OK, so the UN might not regard the Bristol Channel as an international frontier, and nobody was going to be checking my passport along the way (just as well, since the queue would scupper all hope of a fast time). But, for people on both sides of the Anglo-Welsh border, this is very definitely a dividing line between two distinct and proud nations. And never more so than during the Six Nations rugby.
