Thanks as always to our amazing hi-vis heroes for making another fantastic junior parkrun possible – your energy and support help create that special Sunday morning magic every week 💚!

Despite the breezy conditions, we saw 47 brilliant juniors complete the course – with an impressive 7 personal bests achieved. Fantastic all round 👏🏽

A warm welcome to our 3 first timers – we hope you had a great time and look forward to seeing you again soon! 😊

It was a lovely sunny (and slightly windy!) morning filled with smiles, determination and plenty of community spirit.

We look forward to seeing you all next week for more junior parkrun fun! Don’t forget to arrive a few minutes early ready for the warm-up and a 9am start.

And don’t forget that you can cool off throughout the Summer with our friends at Splashy Land UK. All juniors participating on a Sunday benefit from free access (1 junior plus 2 adults) for the whole Summer for the 10am session - show your barcode and the result for the Sunday 🙌🏽.
