- 30 WRC members ran at 12 Events
- Quietest: Rothay [91]
- Busiest: South Manchester [327]
- Tourists: Richard, Ron and Nicky
A few of our runners ventured afar this week. I saw a number of runners around the Windemere area but didn’t spot RichardH. He first timed, coming 4th, with a quick 20 minute run at Ambleside. He is 4 away from his 100th. Also missed Rony who was just down the road. He revisited Newby Bridge. It was the winter course route with narrower paths. Not as fast as his last visit 6 years ago. But his AG was better. Nicky added Isleworth her list of parkruns. Now at 24. A good time and an impressive AG of 83.43%. Unusually, she was pipped on AG by 2 other ladies also in her category. The first had an AG of 93.11% , Finishing first lady and setting the course category record. Laura chose Warrington to complete her first parkrun for over 18 months. – top of her age group as well. IanS returned to Yorkshire and was second in his category. RichardL ran with the crowds at South Manchester and was just 10 seconds off his previous time.
Onto pairs: At Wythenshawe, Rob paced Frankie around. But she was a little short of her August PB run. The Johnstone’s took to the hills at Macc and found Macc Harriers on a mission to get ready for XC. They had 32 runners out and 14 PBs were achieved by them. Sharon was second lady finisher. Alan and John returned to Alexandra park. No records were set. But, John was first in his category and Alan second in his.
Now for groups. Wilmslow had most members running. Sam came home first. We had 5 in the first nine: James, Jim, Mike and Graham finished 5,6,7,and 9th. Mike on his 199th parkrun. Rebecca and Trevor pacing 23 minutes? Nic consistently hitting 24 minutes again. IanA was back to run in Wilmslow after an absence of 3 months. His recent hill training in Wales and tapering in the Med didn’t improve upon his previous time. Still top in his age category.
Bramhall had the WRC Mafia running. Rob second to finish but top on AG with 86.29%; PaulN and Janine 4th and fifth on AG. PaulG had bragging rights over PaulN. Janine and PaulN were top in their Age Category. Janine ran the exact time as her last run there.
That just leaves the Breakfast Club who chose Marple for a nice snack afterwards. Andrew was first member to finish on his home course. Angie, being local, guided Chris around to be first in his category. Carolyn was second in her category.
And the results .. In no particular order .
