With lots of other running events on this weekend, not surprisingly the Langport Runner turn out at Parkrun was relatively low. 

Parkrun were celebrating 70 years of the NHS. Many people dressed in blue as a nod to the service.

On her 20th Parkrun, Maggie achieved our only PB with a hefty 27 seconds off her PB held since July of last year. Well done Maggie! Steve and Kyle were taking it easy, by their standards, and Liz tops our percentage table. Nearly 400 at Montacute this week.

Over at Street, they are continuing their success with 182 runners. Running her 10th Parkrun here, Karen was close to matching her PB and Michael ticked off another, heading towards his 50th.

Dave was our sole runner at Burnham. He was on the ball this week , armed with barcode and ready to run at the start! 

Down under, Neal Stayner and Diane Stewart ran together at Cottesloe Parkrun in Australia. A field of 88 runners, Neal and Diane came in 23rd and 24th respectively. Diane  coming second in our percentage scores this week. The ladies dominating the table overall.
