Temperatures dropped below freezing overnight on Friday across Oxfordshire, forcing the Kilkenny Lane Country parkrun to cancel Saturday's event. The organisers stated: 'Safety dictates that the course is unsafe due to ice.' They directed participants to check whether Witney parkrun was still running as an alternative.

Other parkruns across the county were not affected by the conditions. Grove Fields parkrun organisers encouraged runners to dress in layers, noting that participants would pass the bag drop area twice during the run, allowing them to shed layers as they warmed up during the event.
