Another Parkrun could soon be on the way, with talks taking place about establishing one in Beccles.

Runners in the town are gathering this weekend to discuss setting one up in the area.

The meeting has been organised by John White and Kesiah Florence who posted details on Facebook.

More than 60 people have already expressed support online.

The meeting will take place at 10am at the health and wellness club, Space at the Quay, with representatives from local running clubs, Parkrun and the council expected to attend.

Beccles is one of the largest towns in the area without a Parkrun.

The nearest is in Lowestoft, which goes along the Promenade and was described as one of the "most breath-taking" in the country by the BBC last year.

There are others in Gorleston and Great Yarmouth.

Dereham held its first Parkrun in July. Before then, it was Norfolk's largest town without one. There are now 23 in the county, with 17 in Suffolk.

The first Parkrun was held in London 20 years ago and they have now grown throughout the UK and abroad.

They are free community events which allow people to walk, jog or run 5k every Saturday morning.
