Course 2023/3 - Graduation

"One run can change your day, many runs can change your life"

Another successful course was completed on Tuesday 24 October 2023 after 27 runs, starting from Week 1 to Week 9 and completing 30 minutes non stop running.  Looking back to where the participants started and where they finished is an achievement to be very proud of.  Nic Wright from the Local Medical Council presenting medals, certificates and awards, to all the team who completed the course, along with giving her experience from Couch to 5k to where she is with her distance running which inspired all those attending.

Receiving their run leaders shirts we had Bernie, Adele, Mel and Regina who have stepped up to support the programme and mentor others within the programme.  Our awards for those who stood out in the programme recognised, Mya-Jane Nelmes, who was the youngest member to complete the course as part of the Duke of Edinburgh award scheme.  Many congratulations.

Judith Perrins got the award for most improved runner

Caroline Nelmes for most determined runner

Kayleigh Moore for the most outstanding performer of the course

Congratulations to everyone who was part of this magical course, and we look forward to seeing how you all progress at parkrun and the next step up to 5-10km distances.
