We had an excellent run last sunday, our 7th, and the weather was kind to us! Before the run we presented certificates to two runners who had completed 5 events. I'm sure we will do this at 5 , 10, and 15 events over the next few months for a lot more runners.
We always get a few first timers, often brothers and sister who have decided to give it a go. All ages from 4 to 14 years. All abilities.
I was pleased to get a mention in the newsletter from our local Yeovil Montecute 5k parkrun where I have clocked up 21 runs myself.

It's
Saturday morning and it is raining, not - perfect for a bit of
running round Montacute!
Just
a quick update ahead of Tom’s Run Report to catch up with some
"parish notices"...
comments about the London Marathon
and then this plug!
Children’s
Fun Run – Langport – tomorrow, Sunday 3rd
May
A
reminder that the next North Moor children's fun run is on
Sunday 3rd May starting at 10 am ,registration from 9.30 am. This
time starting near the Tesco Metro store. Parking is allowed at the
store car park for the run. Start and finish and registration will
all take place near the store end of the path.
This
time they hope to be able to make the 2k event a single lap by
extending the course along the broad river path to the railway
bridge and return for the 2k. The 1k will stay on the path as before.
Extra
marshals will be used on the extended route.
They will
be stopping for refreshments or even a late breakfast at the Bow
Wharf Cafe afterwards. Art Tea Zen cafe is also open for coffee and
cakes opposite the Langport Arms
