So an unexpectedly high number of churchrunners at Brighton Marathon – Sutton Christian Centre had father and daughter Ric and Bethany Adams running. I note the person wearing the yellow headband isn’t Ric.

Trinity Churches Shrewsbury joined in the Christmas Shrewsbury parkrun Nativity Style!
A group of about 40 of us aged from 2.5 to 60 years upwards got together dressed as the various characters from the nativity and ran the Shrewsbury parkrun. Not only that but we also sang Christmas Carols. It was a brilliant parkrun with so many getting in the Christmas spirit and other runners really appreciated our efforts.

Thank you all so much for coming, 40 ran for Chiltern, 18 for Good Shepherd, 2 for Vineyard Sutton, 8 for Holy Trinity Church Wallington, 5 for Emmanuel, 5 for St Patrick’s Tigers, and 8 for Selsdon Baptist – 92 runners in total! Oh, and two dogs.
Well this was the first ever national inter church ‘mob match’, so if you took part, that’s a little bit of history you were making!
In total there were 162 runners, across 27 parkruns running for 15 Christian running groups/churches – a massive turn out, nearly 50% bigger again than our biggest ever physical mob match. People certainly got into it and runners from Holy Trinity Wallington have already been asking me about the November mob match at Nonsuch parkrun.
Obviously none of this would be possible without parkrun – so a big thank you to them.

Well the rain had been heavy, and there was a bit of mud, but it held off early morning and around 400 runners started off on their parkrun at Nonsuch in Cheam, a mixture of tarmac and grass, the course is fairly flat and whilst slippy in places was not too badly water logged. The rain still held off, and 385 determined souls finished their Saturday morning 5k.
