Parkrun could be set up at Rutland Water

A keen runner is hoping to set up a Parkrun event at Rutland Water and is holding an event next month to recruit volunteers.

The Parkrun organisation organise and support 5k runs throughout the UK, which are free and open to all, in a bid to encourage people to run. The runs take place at 9am every Saturday morning.

Paul Rogerson, from Rutland Run and Tri Club, is among those hoping to set one up for Rutland, which would start in the autumn, but needs volunteers to get it off the ground.
