- We headed over the Pennines to check out Philips Park parkrun. It's been called the toughest parkrun in Manchester so we weren't expecting it to be easy. It was a challenging run with a hill with a sting in the tail that you run twice, plus a different hill on the third, shorter lap. However, the feeling that overrides that is the feeling of being in an incredible sporting area. Having never visited Sportcity Manchester then I loved the feeling of being in an area that lives and breathes sporting greatness, especially being by the National Cycling Centre, the home of British Cycling.
I was super excited that the Run Director on the day was the lovely Philip (who is also co-ED at the event). I would LOVE to find a Nicola parkrun one day! Philips Park itself has so much incredible history and it's rare that I am so excited to immerse myself so fully in a park and its history but Philips Park just feels special. Hopefully that will come across in the video. I mention in the video that Philips Park was opened on the same day in 1846 as Peel Park and that I would link to this video so that's here:
