The drizzle didn't spoil the finale to our latest Couch to 5K course at Lydiard Park this weekend! Spurred on at Swindon Parkrun by fantastic support from Team JB and their running leaders Becky and Kim, our novice runners did themselves proud, completing their first 5km run in style!
Other Run JB members put in some great performances despite the rain, with personal bests for Barbara Kirkup, Alison Wade and Amanda Kemp and magnificent first time Parkruns for Laura Shimell and June Lawrence!
Check out the full results from Saturday here and the Run JB results history. If you aren't included in the Run JB list, don't forget to change your Parkrun registration to include Run JB as your club!
Huge congratulations to Sarah Mathis, Liza Cording, Joanne Parker, Sharon Northwood, Tracy Holt, Anne Bradley, Sonia Slimmon, Lauren Mann, Sarah Roberts, Emma Smith for graduating from Couch to 5K! We look forward to welcoming you all to Run JB on Wednesday evenings from 4 June at 7pm! Please note that there is no Run JB club session this coming Wednesday 28th May.
