parkrun roundup: 16th February 2013

There’s a mixed bag of results from parkrun this week, as the majority of members were busy preparing for the Royal Signal Relays which took place on Saturday afternoon.

The furthest travelled member was David Appleby, who took part in the Mile End (London) parkrun, whilst closer to home, seven members completed Newcastle parkrun, including Graham Smith, who knocked over 10 minutes off his previous time to record a PB.

The other harriers competing around the region were, John Hurse running at Whitley Bay parkrun before dashing off to take part in the relays, and Sophie Marr, who ran a PB at Riverside parkrun. Sophie’s PB of 19:58 was her first time under 20 minutes at any parkrun event.

Many congratulations to Graham and Sophie on their PB’s and well done to everyone else.

    I think Graham Smith achieved a pb at Newcastle

    1. Cheers Kenny, I’ve amended the article to highlight Graham’s fantastic run.
