Southwick Country parkrun
Event number 38
19th May 2012
The parkrun enjoyed some fine weather this week which made a change from the three gloomy weeks that preceded it. Peter Grist’s trip up from Wells was well worth it as he managed to win by a whole minute despite the fact he trailed Eliot Green for the entire first lap, Eliot eventually finished fourth recording the same time as Stuart Burgess (third place man). All three front men finished with PB’s.
The ladies was a much closer affair with Fiona Price, AVR, taking first place in time of 24:28 only 13 secs in front of the up and coming teenager Keziah Burgess. Yes Keziah is another decedent of Stuart Burgess who continues to produce winning children at the parkrun. Sarah Barrell had possibly the best run of the day finishing third and taking almost a minute off her PB.
The parkrun torchbearer war Billie Pratt and club 10 T shirts were awarded to James Welbourn and Josiah Burgess who have both now ran well over 10 parkruns each. All juniors are awarded free technical T shirts once they reach 10 parkruns whilst the adults have to run 50 before they see any reward for their efforts.
The parkrun this week is being run in collaboration with Hot Chilli tri club who are running in aid of Orchid the male cancer awareness charity. The parkrunners will be running in their pants yes the pant tastic parkrun will be a sight for sore eyes this coming Saturday, to be part of the free run go to www.parkrun.com and don’t forget your barcode.
