Dave’s Notfast news
There were 25 club members over 5 Parkruns this week, Newark, Long Eaton, Jersey, Dalby Forest and Bakewell.
The main event was last Friday night, the Summer solstice 10k road race at Long Bennington, hosted by Grantham running club. A fantastic club turnout, 62 in total (more than any other club attending, including the hosts). It was a lovely evening, if not a bit warm and the clubs colour was highly sought after by the summer bugs, but some Fantastic PBs achieved: Dave Fargher, Breeze Rowlands, Joanna Gray, Jacqui Walton, Victoria Heath, Karen Borrill, Kate Blair, Barry wood.
Some standout PB's: Faye Paterson and Jonathan Van-Tam getting their first sub 60 and Peter Brown, beating last PB by 15 minutes.
