Slightly overcast today but still a warm one, well done to the 404 people who ran, jogged and walked the course, of whom 41 were first timers and 62 recorded new Personal Bests. 

Congratulations to Joshie Boczkowski on his 100th parkrun today and to Malcolm Dent on his 200th run.

We welcomed the Ancora Medical practice this morning as part of the parkrun practice. Dr Jajja brought his team to the park for the run and all made it round safely - well done!

Well done to Jayne Eaton and her "No need 4 speed" running group who completed the first (of many?) parkruns.

Welcome one and all!

THANK YOU to all the volunteers and also to all the runners who were very sensible in the heat and watched out for each other. Last week a young man was overcome by the heat and two runners abandoned their run to look after him (he quickly made a full recovery) - thank you all for being part of our wonderful community!
