Parkrun 22 June report

Run reports

The barrage parkrun celebrated its 7th birthday on Saturday. It was also a morning of celebration for the Johnston's. Sam completed his 250th parkrun and Andy his 150th. A fair few of the 47 Striders present joined them for drinks at the Talpore afterwards - where Sam was presented with a smart montage of his parkrun career. Sam had led a tough training session at Ropner Park on Thursday - and three of those who took part subsequently walked away with lifetime best parkrun times. Two of those were Jamie Bentley, who was also third finisher, and the exponentially improving Michael Meggs. Aaron Atkinson took advantage of some Striders pacing to get a new pb - and a rare barrage outing for Claire Banton resulted in another pb. Helen Mcilvenny…

Parkrun 16 June report

Run reports

A warm morning at the barrage saw 22 Striders in a field of 326 runners. Phil Swash and the rapidly improving Michael Meggs got new pb's. Paul A, Jeanette A, Julia C, Andy J, Helen J, Nigel R and Simon R all kindly gave their time to help with volunteering. Elsewhere there were two exceptional performances to report - these being from Suzanne Brodie at Hartlepool and Christian Oxley at Albert Park. Suzanne got a lifetime parkrun best - running over a minute faster than she'd ever gone before. Great work Suzanne. Christian also got a lifetime best time - knocking nearly a minute and a half of his previous best at Albert. I'll be expecting you in the sub 22 group at future training sessions Christian... We also saw…

Parkrun 8 June report

Run reports

24 Striders were joined at the barrage by a very special visitor - matron. Following Dave Fender's super quick mile at the NYMAC relays there was concern that he might 'overdo it' at the parkrun - picking up another unusual injury in the process. Matron and her team of physios were on hand for this eventuality. The run itself saw both Steve Harrisson and Beverley Harvey get new pb's. Helen Mcilvenny was third female finisher and myself, Tom Day and Dave Fender got 2nd, 3rd and 4th for the men. David M and Viv M volunteered. I'm pleased to report that Dave finished the run unscathed and got a big hug from matron at the finish. Elsewhere there was a pb for Andrew Hall at Albert Park. Mathew Clarkson, Elaine…
