Helen Smith / Clara Halket BA Club parkrun result for Saturday 17th November at Kingston
Left to right Roderick in Movember guise, Steve, Gary, Neil, Eddie and Ian. Piers arrived too late for the photograph but he was fitting a great deal into the weekend - he was due to run a marathon on the Sunday. Five BAAC members also ran in other parkruns last Saturday. The next club mob parkrun is likely to be at the traditional run at Bushy Park on Tuesday 25th December. That date is not a misprint - there are usually 400 or more runners out on Christmas day. Confirmation and details next month. New parkrun at Upton Court, Slough!Roderick's target of running 50 different parkruns in his first 50 parkruns is made easier and easier thanks to new parkruns being added all the time - Alice Holt last weekend and now a brand new local parkrun this Saturday 24th November at Upton Court, Slough with the usual start time of 09:00.
