It was fantastic to be back, and I’d love to do a big report to do it justice, but circumstances mean a little something is better than nothing!
With some late additions we had 91 running for the Churches – a great number.
Another January National, and it looks like we got a good turnout.
In total there were 245 runners (7 up on last year), across 94 parkruns (up 26 on last year year) running for 20 Christian running groups/churches. Please note some runners are not listed in the individual results due to GDPR issues.
Obviously none of this would be possible without parkrun – so a big thank you to them.

Photo of me running at Bishan parkrun, Singapore. Lesley and I took a taxi to make sure we got there. Nice core team and Volunteers. Slow time as has had to stop as so hot. It was a bit hazy due to Indonesia burning to make way for palm trees.
