A big turnout of 62 Striders at the barrage on Saturday - many of whom were there to congratulate Gail Robinson. Gail completed a double milestone of 100 parkruns and 100 volunteering duties. Also instrumental in setting up the Billingham junior parkrun Gail has done everything from run directing to scanning tokens. I'm sure I speak for everyone at the club by saying a big thank you Gail for your tireless efforts in making the parkrun such a great event. We also saw Andy Johnston volunteer for the 25th time.
