******Please note - due to Manorfest taking place, parkrun will be cancelled on June 10th******
There was a bit of a chill in the air on Saturday morning, but it soon disappeared once the 232 runners were off and running. 13 of you were brand new to parkrun - welcome! Tourists last weekend represented Warrington, Victor Harbor (Australia), Oakwell Hall, Newent, Lloyd, South Manchester and Cuerden Valley parkruns. Also running were parkrun uber tourists John and Joanna Cassells - they have run 233 times and visited a whopping 178 different events! I remembered after the run that I've run with them before at Penrith and Keswick. They have distinctive tshirts which when they are stood together say 'We love parkrun'.
Thanks to run director Emma and her team of volunteers. Saturdays hi-viz heroes were: Alicia CARTER • Allan CAMPBELL • Annika STUMPF • Caroline Sarah EVANS • Catherine CUTTS • David OAKLEY-JENNER • Emma RICHARDSON • Esther ATTWOOD • Frances BRAITHWAITE • Hailie SOUTHALL • Jessica SCOTT-LAMONT • Josette BILLETT • Katie BRINSDEN • Kelly PATTISON • Lindsay GRAHAM • Michael NATTRASS • Neil ERRINGTON • Paula HARMON • Sarah HAMILTON • Susan FAWKES • Tracy BECKETT • Wayne STEVENS • William CARTER • Zoe EDMONDSON
