Run Brief
Thanks for joining us for Cleveland parkrun # 72 It was perfect weather this morning and there were many smiling faces after crossing the line! Congrats to all of our 50 Club members who were presented with their shirts this morning - great role models for getting outside and getting active! You too could be a 50 Club member, make sure you always have your barcode at each event to ensure each run is counted and before you know it you will be a member of the club - a great achievement!
A big thanks to all our volunteers again this week - it was great to have so many new faces volunteer, never having done it before! I am sure those who were there would agree it was nice and easy and gives you an opportunity to get to know the Cleveland parkrun community in a fun way.
Next week is International parkrun Day - Bring a plate and a mate! We will have pacers and we have a few volunteer positions left to fill. If you fancy yourself as a pacer or would like to volunteer please post a message on FB or email us using the already mentioned email address.
Thanks again for a wonderful morning - bring on next week! Kirsty & Jacqui, RDs
