A number of parkrun’s due to take place on Sunday had also been cancelled.
Organisers of the Great Yarmouth North Beach parkrun said it had made the “difficult decision” to cancel the event, external due to “predicted extreme high tide and our course being partially under the sea”.
Whereas in Beccles, in Suffolk, parkrun organisers said the course had been flooded, external by the River Waveney.
It said: “The Waveney has done its thing again and invaded our main courses like the big bully that it is. At the same time, it thumbed its nose at us and flooded the winter course, and the access to it.
“The high level of water is due to continue for a few days, and, added to that, we have the chance of ice in the morning too. This is disappointing, but the safety of everyone involved in the parkrun experience is paramount.”
The parkrun news came after a number of Boxing Day and New Year’s Day dips were cancelled due to high winds and dangerous sea conditions in Sheringham, Cromer and Mundesley in Norfolk and a number of swims were rescheduled.
