This was the last Town Moor parkrun for a month as it’ll be off for a few weeks due to the Hoppings fair. There was a great vibe all morning as a result.
It was also pacer week and I paced 27 minutes for the first time. Came in bang on time, so I was really happy!
With the Blaydon Race coming up on Monday, participants were asked to wear their Blaydon shirts from past years, so I dug out my first one from 2017 – it was hidden under my pacer vest during the actual parkrun but I got to be in a few good group photos beforehand.
Final thing of note: I realised when looking at the results that Jay McGuiness (of The Wanted and Strictly fame) had run Town Moor parkrun today. Nice to have a celebrity visit!

Visiting a local one we’ve not done in a while next week.
