In the lead up to Saturday’s Newcastle parkrun, the town moor was hit by several sleet showers and the organisors were left with the difficult decision of whether to go ahead with the event. Thankfully they agreed it could, on the proviso that the runners used their common sense (runners and common sense?), and even though the course was slippery in places, it turned out to the right decision as the runners all had a terrific time – if a little scary at times – and everyone got round in one piece.
As usual, the club was well represented by it’s members so well done to everyone listed below, especially Claire Rowley, who managed to make light work of the difficult conditions to post a new PB.
