Running groups making things complicated at Memorial park.
First, I’d like to start off by saying that I think it’s awesome that as a city we’re becoming more active. I also understand that the park belongs to everyone, so everyone is open to enjoy it as long as rules are followed.
With that being said, I’m starting to notice a trend where large running groups are gathering at the Memorial park(groups of 50-60 ppl). I’m all for it but I’ve noticed that now they’re multiple groups meeting at the same time which brings about 80-100 additional ppl to the park.
I’m having issues finding parking due to the large gatherings and the runners stretching deck is not available because the groups meet there and usually hang out for about 45 minutes. They also hang out by the tennis center and stand in the middle of the parking spots socializing..at times.
What days are the best days to run where groups do not meet? Seems to be a daily occurrence. Anyone experiencing this or am I being too harsh?
