Longrun Meadow junior parkrun . Report for the first event of this new parkrun on 24.5.15

Posted this report on our Langport Runners Facebook group page yesterday.

Managed to get to Longrun Meadow, Taunton by 8.45 this morning for the first junior parkrun in Somerset!! I will still claim that we were first with our Northmoor fun run. Amazing turnout. Some of the juniors actually did the 5k run on the same course on Saturday! That is a great advantage in attracting runners which we don't have. I would recommend any of our juniors to try it as long as its not June 7th! They don't do the 1k option either so average age is probably higher. I must go to do the 5k version some time. 


178 runners  for a first event.
