We are now getting into that ‘parkrunday’ routine; on our 192^nd event, we had 192 participants who all enjoyed the day.

There were 25 first timers to Canons Park parkrun, some of whom tried parkrun for the first time.  We hope to see you all again.

It was a good day for PBs too; 32 participants achieved their Personal bests.
