What a busy weekend in Parkrun world! Over a quarter of the membership, 43, were out and about taking on 10 different courses. We had 9 first timers at various courses, 1 new PB and two first places! The Olympic spirit must have taken effect. So where did it all happen?
26 Striders were at Alvaston, with one first timer – Julie Corby. We also had first timers at Hampstead Heath – Lyndsay Wiles, Pascale Holden visited Kettering, Steve Cartwright, Amanda Wilson and Sue Kinross were at Forest Rec, Joseph Melbourne went to Newark, meanwhile Christopher Sharp and Gloria Lagos were at Hafan Pwllheli, and James Realey took on the course at North Yorkshire Water Park.
Oh, and there is one other first timer – Richard Tissington. Richard visited Dolgellau, so by default got a course PB, as did all the other first timers, but he also won the event in a very creditable time of 19:46. Someone else who is used to coming first is Martin Kerr and he won Markeaton in a time of 17:16. The PB of the week was Sally Cartwright at Forest Rec in a time of 28:59.
Well done to everyone taking part, some fantastic running!
