RUNNER OF THE MONTH

Huge congratulations to our Runner of the Month, Deniz! This is for not only impressive personal achievements, but also for the incredible support shown to others.  Deniz has been assisting Shelley with her London Marathon training, offering encouragement and motivation along the way. On top of that, Deniz smashed a fantastic PB of 1 hour 43 minutes at the Brighton Half Marathon, and also completed both the Dartford and Battersea Half Marathons. Well done Deniz !

PARK RUN🌳

This month our members truly embraced park run tourism, visiting an amazing 15 different parkruns!  🌍 These included ARU Writtle, Brooklands, Brockwell, Catford, Peckham, Hanworth, Thames Path, Barking, Bexley, Valentines Parkrun, Holyrood, Sutcliffe, Greenwich Peninsulsa, Edinburgh and Battersea! What a fantastic spread of courses.  It's brilliant to see so many of you exploring new routes, meeting different running communities and starting your weekends the best way possible 🥳  Keep ticking them off!

Also a huge WELL DONE to Caroline and Roger for completing their 200th Park Run at Thames Path! 🥳
