It was a double bill for parkrunners with the opportunity to run on both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day and Bristol & West runners took full advantage with a record number of runners over the weekend.
On Saturday, the Club was represented at twenty-seven events and on Sunday at thirteen.
There were several excellent performances from Club members. On Saturday Sarah EVERITT was our leading finisher at Ashton Court in a time of 20:19. Sarah was also the first female.
Jarlath MCKENNA and Rob STEWART turned up at Sheffield and Jarlath was first finisher at both Sheffield Hallam and the Concord parkrun. Rob was fifth and second at these events. The other first finisher on Saturday was Trystan DANIELS at Llyn Llech Owain in a time of 18:34, a PB by six seconds.
On Sunday, the only parkrun in the local area was at Chipping Sodbury and attracted over 300 runners. Maciej BIALOGONSKI was the first finisher in 17:15. Daryl PHILLIPS was another first finisher at Kesgrave in a time of 18:12.
Ste Grant was at Worthing on Saturday and forwarded the following short report.
“Worthing parkrun is there and back plus a bit on the well surfaced tarmac Prom with the beach huts, shingle beach and sea on one side and the Worthing frontage on the other. Think of Weston with South coast gentility and just as much wind. You start just East of the pier and then run past it and keep going until the turn around point and head back beyond the start to finish just off the prom. If it wasn’t for some bollards that needed pointed out they could have got away with one on-course marshal. Lots of Christmas themed clothing was about and there was a nice mix of youngsters, buggy pushers and well controlled dogs in amongst the normal spread of demographics. Definitely a potentially fast course in the right weather but not too many landmarks to break up eyeline.”
As for the Performance of the Week, this will be shared by the two club members who volunteered twice over the weekend. Step forward Rich KENINGTON and Stu WILKIE.
