Another brilliant day's parkrunning done in ideal conditions this morning...huge thanks to our 209 runners and 18 volunteers.
We were honoured to have a contingent from Bellahouston Harriers join us to celebrate the joint 300th parkrun for two of their number, Deirdre Hoyle and Jacqueline Glass...and we also celebrated with cake as one of our scanners today, Grace Gallagher was sharing her 18th birthday with us all...congratulations all round...
But the really big news today wad made by one of our Bellahouston visitors, Alasdair Campbell, who has gone home to the southside with our male course record ..16.01..taking 4 seconds off our previous mark which had stood for nearly 7 years. No stranger to fast times, Alasdair, and previous holder of a course record at Levengrove...so well done yet again on a fantastic achievement..
So...let's do it all again next week.??

All is perfect and ready down here..just waiting for you all..come and join us...and dont forget to let us know if you'r...

Our roster is all but complete for this week.

Thank you to all the volunteers who have came forward to support this weekends event, I am most appreciative.

We could do with a number checker to finalise the roster if anyone is available, Otherwise we would be delighted of any support for the coming weeks as our roster is light going forward.

The biggest stress for an RD each week is chasing to fill the roster.

If you can help it would be great to get you added to future weeks and help ease the burden on the other Run Directors.

Many thanks in advance
Dougie
