    It is also worth remembering that there are free 5k events around the country every Saturday morning organised by parkrun. These are timed, measured 5ks in a number of locations - nearest to Melton is at Braunstone Park in Leicester, but they are also at Colwick Park in Nottingham, Conkers in NW Leics and from October 2012 Rushcliffe in Nottingham.

    If you are planning to run, you need to register on-line by the Friday evening (once only) at the parkrun website.
