The Ideal Guide to parkrun A brilliant emotive book which spreads the joy and love of parkrun Dame Kelly Holmes Wonderful – Lisa Jackson, Runner s World Perfect for any parkrunner, or wannabe parkrunner, this concise and joyful book reveals how a Saturday 5km run in the park has become a global phenomenon. The Ultimate Guide to parkrun (always with a lower case p!) covers how parkrun started, how it is staged every week, how to get involved as a runner, walker, or volunteer – and even how to start your own run.

But it also brims with practical information, with training plans for different types of runners so that you can (if you wish to) improve your own finishing time. Published to coincide with the 20th anniversary of the founding of the mass participation event in Autumn 2024, the book delves into parkrun’s origins as the brainchild of Paul Sinton-Hewitt, an unemployed man in London. Just 13 runners competed in the first Bushy Park Time Trial on 2 October 2004. Now parkrun has more than 9 million registered runners at more than 2,200 parks in 23 countries, with the most popular countries being the UK, Australia, and South Africa. The book features all aspects of parkrun, including how public-spirited volunteers put on the event, sustainably and for free, every week, and fun boxes such as the most interesting courses around the world, from Poland to the Falkland Islands. If you want to know more about parkrun tourism, how to complete the A-Z Alphabet challenge, and other parkrun milestones, this book is for you. It also includes lists of the five fastest and five slowest parkruns in the UK as well as the top 10 parkruns in the UK and the top 10 parkruns in the world. It also delves into junior parkrun and other less well-known facets of the world s most popular community running event. In short, this is the ideal present for anyone looking for a parkrun book, parkrun merchandise or parkrun gift. Whether you are starting your parkrun journey, about to complete your 100th or 200th parkrun milestone, you will have plenty to discover in this comprehensive guide. It is the perfect parkrun present, for yourself and others! With 224 fact-packed pages, beautifully illustrated with 150 photographs, this is not just any guide to parkrun as it says on the cover – it is the ultimate guide to parkrun. As a former sub-20-minute participant with 171 runs and 111 volunteer credits, I thought I knew everything about the Saturday morning 5K ritual. However, having read Lucy Waterlow’s brilliant book, my eyes have been opened. – Alan Newman, Run ABC Scotland Several years ago, I read a book about parkrun and that was dry and technical, that is not how I know parkrun; it is wonderful and joyous. I am pleased to say my fears were unfounded. Lucy Waterlow, the author, is a professional writer, a keen runner and a massive fan of parkrun. Lucy understands parkrun and the unique place it has in the running community, both in the UK and throughout the world.

You don t need to travel to experience the joy of bird-watching: just take a look at the pigeons in your nearby park! With this fun, quirky, and scientifically correct field guide to the most common bird in most cities, you ll learn to see pigeons and doves (they re the same thing) with a bird-watcher s expertise, understanding their fascinating behaviour and appreciating nature right outside your window. Part field guide, part history, part ornithology primer, and altogether fun. Fact: Pigeons are amazing, and until recently, humans adored them. We ve kept them as pets, held pigeon beauty contests, raced them, used them to carry messages over battlefields, harvested their poop to fertilize our crops-and cooked them in gourmet dishes. Now, with The Pocket Guide to Pigeon Watching, readers can rediscover the wonder. Equal parts illustrated field guide and quirky history, it covers behaviour: Why they coo; how they flock; how they preen, kiss, and mate (monogamously); and how they raise their young (on chunky pigeon milk). Anatomy and identification, from Birmingham Roller to the American Giant Runt to the Scandaroon. Birder issues, like what to do if you find a baby pigeon stranded in the park. And our lively shared story together, including all the things we ve taught them-Ping-Pong, for example. Rats with wings? Think again. Pigeons coo, peck and nest all over the world, yet most of us treat them with indifference or disdain. So Rosemary Mosco, a bird-lover, science communicator, writer, and cartoonist (and co-author of The Atlas Obscura Explorer s Guide for the World s Most Adventurous Kid) is here to give the pigeon s image a makeover, and to help every town- and city-dweller get closer to nature by discovering the joys of birding through pigeon-watching.

Jenny Morris has taken the with great power comes great responsibility concept and applied it to someone who struggles to be responsible for her own laundry. Thea is a relatable, messy character whose trials and tribulations kept me laughing all the way to the emotional gut punch. What a marvellous debut!’ Alice Bell, author of Grave Expectations ‘An Ethical Guide to Murder is the best type of book – one that’s as entertaining as it is thought-provoking. With Thea, Jenny Morris has created one of the most interesting characters that I’ve read in a long time’ Kellye Garrett, award winning author of Missing White Woman ‘Is Thea a serial killer? Is she an avenging angel? Maybe she’s both. Fresh and fun, I loved this original take on the crime genre. Combining ethics with a good old revenge story, I raced through this unexpectedly poignant novel. A fabulous debut!’ Sam Holland, author of The Echo Man
