Yesterday it was the first sub-zero Parkrun this winter, but despite the cold it was a beautiful, crisp & sunny morning – perfect for running in! Striders came out in their numbers with 42 of us dotted around Parkrun-land, plus some lovely volunteers! Thanks very much to Paul Roome at Markeaton, Anna Hagan-Pearce & Pascale Holden at Alvaston for braving the cold to help out :D
This week it was time for our monthly Striders Tourist Parkrun, at the spectacular Wollaton Hall – We couldn’t have picked a better day to be at the park, it looked so beautiful in the sun :D. We had a very good turnout too, with 17 of us making the trip and Tim Stokes, Steve Cartwright & Poppy, Eamonn & Kate Hughes, Lyndsay Wiles and Sue Kinross all having their first go at the challenging, but rewarding course! It was great to have new members Chris Sharp & Gloria Lagou with us too, as well as Ben Spate in his snug Batman hat with Mum & Dad Tim & Sam!
Thanks to Eamonn for the photos, sorry if anyone was missed, it’s a bit like rounding up sheep trying to get Striders for a photo!! :D Well done everyone lovely to see you all!


Elsewhere, we had Hannah Cartwright – who is in great form after her first Derby 10 mile last week, carrying this on back at Uni by getting her PB at Yarborough Leisure Centre in Lincoln – go Hannah that’s brilliant!
Liz Phillips & Paul Phillips were down South visiting family and Liz had another go at Tilgate, getting her PB and also 1st in her Age Cat! Cheered on by Paul, who is gladly on his way back after an injury – hope to see you out there soon Paul, and great running Liz!
