I'm a 46 year old runner who isn't really that obsessed with running any more because I spent my twenties and half of my thirties running "properly". Can you guys hate us women any more than you already do? The insults on this thread are disgusting. Yes, we do the same sport as you because its allowed. You don't have to hate us for daring to have an opinion about it and mock us and belittle us.
I think people running with dogs are cheats, just like women running with male bodies, if they take places from people running fairly. Whether thats park run or not, I don't care. Although I'm avoiding park run in future.
I know men like you really want us to be silent and obedient little serfs so that other men can get away with cheating and make you feel better (I'm not sure how that works but I assume its something to do with being turned down by female runners in the past so you feel that if men can emulate us, you somehow get one over on women) but there aren't that many women to do that any more, unless you pay 35k for their visas and health care.
Its always the long distance runner types, sprinters and middle distance athletes are usually quite well adjusted. I was primarily an 800m and 1500m runner when I raced seriously, so the world of embracing park run and men insulting me for being "too slow" are a bit alien to me. To be honest, the only thing that would bring me back to park run despite all its issues would be if they reduced it to 3k, because as a former middle distance track athlete, 3k is about as far as I'd ideally want to run on the roads.
I suspect theres too much actual running content in this post for you.
