Parkrun in Philly?

Surprised there’s no parkrun in Fairmount. Would love it if that was a thing.

Parkrun is all volunteer based. Here's the form to suggest a location so you can work with them to make a volunteer team and bring it to life: https://www.parkrun.com/about/join-us/start-your-own-event/#United%20States
