Normal service resumed!
So, second weekend in June and it felt like winter! But did that stop us going out, of course not. We had 41 Striders visiting 10 venues, getting 2 new PB’s and 5 first timers.
Thomas Wyatt clocked 20:18 at Alvaston, knocking 01:11 of his previous best. Naimah Hameed recorded 32:27 at Conkers and rather spookily that also represented a 01:11 PB. At Markeaton, Rachel Farrow continued chipping away at her time coming in at 26:22, that’s Rachel’s quickest Parkrun since October 2022! Also regaining pace is Andrew Lucas, clocking 21:14, which is Andrew’s second fastest time at Alvaston.
On to the tourists. Chris Sharp visited Mansfield, Julie Corby was at Ashbourne, Amanda Wilson at Beacon Hill, Amanda Jackson went to Rushcliffe and Gloria Lagou was at Valentines Park which is in Ilford – all of these were first timers. Although no longer a Strider, as she is currently travelling the world, Leah Thomas was halfway round the world at Albert Park in Melbourne, Australia.
Thanks also to Andrew Miller for the shout out to Andrew Lucas and Rachel Farrow. If any of you spot great performances, please let me know.
Great running everyone! Weather looking a bit mixed for the weekend, but I’m sure we’ll be out and about.
