I noticed when I was looking up our local run that they only want people doing a single Christmas run but are happy with two New Year’s Day runs. You could just not get a time for one...

Peckham Rye is my local: it was voted "London's prettiest Parkrun", and is dead flat which is a plus if you've got a passenger.
I used to run Hilly Fields for ages before Peckham Rye started up, but HF is a bit... hilly.

Peckham Rye closer than Hilly Fields, and flatter definitely. Brockwell Park is another option, also pretty close to Dulwich, and somewhere between PR and HF for undulating-ness.
I ran my one and only Xmas Day parkrun at Hilly Fields two years ago. Was still pissed from the night before and felt horrendous. Second runner home, first in a Santa hat!

south east london parkrunners - i'm after some advice.
I'm going to take my twins to do a double parkrun on christmas day - does anyone know the nearest 9am parkrun to the 10am Dulwich one?
I was thinking hilly fields or peckham rye, although hilly fields would be a bit of a lung buster with 40kg of ballast. I've not run peckham rye so any advice gratefully received
Bonus points for it being suitable for a big old road running pushchair
