Stranmillis College parkrun

Please park at the car park on Stranmillis Roundabout! Once you come on the site come up the right hand side of the main building and take the first right, that will take you to the back of the Orchard Building where we start! (It is a 5 minute walk from car park to start line)

Stranmillis in south Belfast is known for being a leafy suburb of the city, but some of its shrubs and trees are disappearing. It's part of a £17 million flood alleviation scheme for Belfast to keep 1500 homes and businesses safe. There are calls for action to be stopped.

🏃🏻‍♀️🤞🙊

Belfast I’m coming. Tomorrow morning 6.45am for the win. 5km run around 35 mins. Do you fancy it? Please retweet 🙏🏼😀

Any updates for restarts will be posted here and on our Facebook! Thanks for bearing with us!

Hi everyone, Just a post to say it’s taking a little longer than planned for our event to get started again. Thank you for everyone messaging to see when they can hit those college hills again and sorry it hasn’t been sooner.

Some Parkrun touring this morning! Thanks for having us @Ecosparkrun such a lovely route!

@Queens_parkrun @parkrunUK @parkrunIE Amazing work today queens team! Fantastic planning by you all and great volunteers made for a very safe event! Lovely to visit and will be back soon!

Aaaaaand breathe.....thanks to all our volunteers, runners, walkers, it was a great start back. Thanks to everyone for taking the guidelines on board. Some great performances today too. @parkrunUK @parkrunIE Where you all training during lockdown or something 😂😊👏👏

A quick reminder there is no event at Stranmillis college tomorrow. Wherever you are planning on running read the below and be extra nice to the volunteers looking after you! Oh and don’t forget your barcode…#dfyb

@colinglenprkrun Aiming for a September restart! But yes touring while running and volunteering for the rest of the summer so we don’t get rusty!

Tour, while you can! Any return date yet?

Where is everyone else running their first parkrun back??

We are very excited for all our neighbours to kick off in a few short weeks and we will be visiting to run and volunteer with you soon! @Queens_parkrun @orangeparkrun @ormeauparkrun @StormontParkrun @Wallaceparkrun and the rest who won’t fit in this tweet!!

Unfortunately we wont be able to return Stranmilllis parkrun on the 26th June. We hope to be in a position soon to share more detail about a later return so keep watching here for announcements.

@newbelfast Counting down to our first run back and looking forward to seeing you there some Saturday soon!

Just took part in park run survey asking if I would volunteer when fun returns from 26 June. I think I can sign up for a return to our pals at @StranmillisPR - not every week, mind you, but count me in at least once-a-month.

Happy New Year to all of our runners! Keep on running and here’s to getting back to the Stranmillis college hills in 2021!!

@BelfastParkruns The littlest Parkrun with the biggest hill 🙈

Below are the average attendances for our local events in 2020. Certain venues were boosted by huge turnouts on 01.01.20. Belfast Victoria 283.09 Colin Glen 99.7 Falls 92.33 Orangefield 123.09 Ormeau 484.82! Queen's 188.45 Stormont 330.09 Stranmillis College 45.67 Waterworks 306

@BelfastParkruns @bfastvictoriapr @colinglenprkrun @orangeparkrun @ormeauparkrun @Queens_parkrun @StormontParkrun @Waterworkspark1 Lots of behind the scenes legwork by Matt, Damien and Stranmillis college to get everything in place! Everyone involved was keen to make the most of the beautiful campus grounds, invite the public in and provide an alternative to the busy ormeau event for Stranmillis residents!

A little request! @bfastvictoriapr @colinglenprkrun @orangeparkrun @ormeauparkrun @Queens_parkrun @StormontParkrun @StranmillisPR @Waterworkspark1 I think a lot of people on planet Twitter might like to hear the story of how your parkrun got started. See the attached page.

@exhebden @BelfastParkruns @lizzyleitch @ormeauparkrun @bangorparkrun @StormontParkrun @Waterworkspark1 @bfastvictoriapr We might win the prize for best social distancing at a Parkrun 🙈

@BelfastParkruns @lizzyleitch @ormeauparkrun @bangorparkrun @StormontParkrun @Waterworkspark1 @bfastvictoriapr I just can't wait to run 1 again! Tho it will be @StranmillisPR with about 40 other people!
