Photo credits to Mimi Dibdin our photographer on the day, also thanks to her Dad Robert Dibdin who kept score, assisted by Tom Higgs, first man home in a blistering 16.52! In all 237 people ran Roundshaw parkrun that day, and we were spread from position 1 to position 237! It was awesome to see so many of our runners there.

Scores, after handicap, for those who like such things, as follows;

Next mob match looks to be September 10^th at Riddlesdown, so get that one into your calendar! If you can’t make Riddlesdown – do not despair this will also be scored separately as a National (virtual) event as well – where you can run any parkrun and still be counted!
