parkrun ” Summer Series ” Update

Saturday 28/2/15. 

Two WRC members registered their first parkrun 5K road times at South Manchester, Sharon Johnstone, her first appearance there in a time of 18.40 finishing first lady and a parkrun PB and Christian Hook in 21.27 another PB.

I headed for Congleton  with Steve and Carolyn. We were joined by Damian, Andy W, Tony, Andy D and Alan T. I compared clicking knee joints with Doddy prior to the race and again we came to the conclusion we were just there to run a leisurely 5K.

There are two barriers on the tarmac section of the course, today they were both open so no need to make a very slight deviation around them, this must save a second each making a total of 6 seconds over the three laps. I was nearer to the front on the starting grid so perhaps another few seconds advantage.

Four weeks into the series and already every second is counting.

Damian finished first in 16.09 equalling his PB at Congleton.

    Hi Chris, thanks, I wish! I was 18.40 not 18.09 – May be next time! Sharon Johnstone
