Jon Barter, PB in 00:38.40

Great Notley parkrun,

Rob Hankey, Easy run whilst Michelle was timekeeper. 00:23:30

Len Marten, “In an attempt to “pull my finger out” I aimed for a finish time of 30 minute.  With 500m pacing splits and lots of encouragement from Rachel I managed one second outside of the target time. Thank you, Rachel! That’s 1min 41s faster than last week and fastest time this year.” 00:30:01

Maldon parkrun

Simon Gallagher, First Bronze standard and 59 seconds off my PB thanks to amazing support from Chris Gardiner, Ryan Naidoo and Rowena Redbelli. PB and Bronze std in  00:22:58

Chris Gardiner, This was the perfect example of what this club is all about. Simon Gallagher said on the pre run catch up he wanted to go for a PB and his first club standard. Through support from myself, Rowena and Ryan (and the two of them had never met before). He smashed his PB by almost a minute and dipped under 23 minutes for his first club standard. Just an amazing buzz! 00:22:58

Rowena de Belligny, Ran to parkrun with son and Dad, then paced Simon Gallagher to almost a minute PB!!! 00:22:59

Rob King, “Had a steady jog to Maldon with Rowena and my grandson Tristan. Had a little nosh of Comfrey and Dandelions on the way which set me up for my fastest time this year.

Lovely to see a good representation of TRR members  and my other lovely daughter Ruth. Managed first in my age group and now in the 75% age grading again.” 00:23:06

Dave Cassin, Had a great run coming in 8 seconds over my current PB. Did an extra loop after to find Papa Cassin who was walking. He came in at about 53 minutes, after taking the wrong turn on the second lap. Good crowd as usual, plenty of fellow TRRs. 00:23:19
