We shall be we following 'The Dennison Series' with interest 😊 as they have 60 months to complete the series of 6 including Lisbon, Prague, Berlin, Copenhagen, and Valencia. Next, but just round the corner we have Martin Mee, Andrea Winkless and Ian Robinson taking on the Chester Marathon and Justine Albert, the Chester Metric Marathon. Both Martin and Andrea landed a marathon PB and what was the icing on the cake for Andrea? Well, it was only her 60th marathon event! Well, done to both of you.
Closer to home and on our doorstep, we had 27 Barrow Runners out taking on the Charnwood Challenge. Given the horrendous wet weather of late, it certainly lived up to its name giving our runners a tough job on Sunday morning. Big shout out to Lewis Moses who crossed the line in 2nd place. In addition to our runners, we had 6 walkers taking on the challenge too. Great workout for all concerned.
Parkrun is celebrating its 20th year, and the past weekend was the official birthday weekend of when it took off in Bushy Park, London. So many of us love parkruns for all sorts of very good reasons and our RUNdown reports would be incomplete and empty without them. This weekend sees Jake Blyth pick up a PB at Abbey Park with a time of 18:34, congratulations Jake.
Well, done everyone on your weekend's accomplishments.
