PARKRUN ROUND UP 30/31 MAY

Great start to this weekend's Parkrun results for our young athletes.  First up was young Cameron Green who only at 10 years old had a cracking introduction to particpating in Parkruns.  He set himself a high standard to maintain and completed the 5k Strathclyde Parkrun in 20:27 with the support of his Dad, Neil.
Well done Cameron and makes the job of being Coach worthwhile, thank you.
 
From John's Training group we have the improving Morgan Beaton completing her 8th Parkrun. Somewhat off her best by 4 mins but I know Morgan will get back and beyond that level.

Strathclyde Park Parkrun #259 (5k)

20th, Cameron Green, 20:27, 1st timer
154th, Morgan Beaton, 32:32, 8th time

Lewis Moir (under 11 Training group) and Rudi Jordan (under 9 Training group) were in action in today's junior Victoria Park Parkrun. Both athletes now have a few of these events under their belt and both did well to finish in the top 10 out of 70 runners. Lewis Moir was able to equal his Pb time and Rudi Jordan achieved a Pb by 9 seconds.  Well done Lewis and Rudi.

TRAINING CANCELLED - WED 8 APRIL

Everyone who was at training tonight (Wednesday 1st April) I informed them the training will be cancelled next week.  This is due to a couple of coaches not being available and the lack of helpers to assist coaches.  So for the safety of the kids we need to cancel the session.

Please spread the word and pass on to any fellow Harriers that weren't at training tonight. 
 
Back on as normal on Wed 15th April at 6.30pm.
 
Thank you
Richard
