Wee bit late, but Teesdale AC parkrun report for Saturday 22nd September

Alice B got a parkrun PB on her first go at 'parkrun tourism', at Crichton, Dumfries 🏃‍♀️

Meanwhile, Mat was at touristing at Sheringham.

At Darlington South Park, we had Erica, Carrie, and Jack - Jack being second finisher in 17:21 (and a course PB for him).

Michael D was at Warrington for the result of the day - a 10% age grade improvement on his previous best and a 3-minute pb!

And on The Demesnes, we saw Dave, Anna, Joanne, Gail, Karen, Kornel, Steve, and Rhys. Kornel earned a new course PB but Steve still just beat him on the all-important age grading! Congrats to Karen; a whopping 90 second pb on her fifth parkrun. Not forgetting it was tutu (22) Saturday, so Joanne missing no opportunity for some parkrun dress up!

And over at Hamsterley Forest, we had Joe and Jasmine taking part 🌳

Where will this Saturday see everyone parkrunning?

Whilst some people were tackling Kirkcarrion, others were at our normal Tuesday night session - this week it was the fantastically named 'Mona Fartlek' session down by the River Tees.

This intense session is designed to build speed and endurance, and is brilliant for those looking to improve their 5k times. It's named comes from the Australian runner, Steve Monaghetti, who used the workout to train for all events up to 5K.

Cotherstone 6K/10K Fun Run - photos part 1

We had a great time at this annual charity fun run, raising money for Pancreatic Cancer and the Great North Air Ambulance. An undulating cross country course, with some pretty strong headwinds at time, but with beautiful views across Teesdale, with the option to run or walk, and 2 distances of 6K or 10K

✨️ Thank you to the amazing organisers and volunteers ✨️

Thank you Peter Dixon for the photos 📸
