Race Report: Bushy Park 10k and parkrun

As January draws to a close and bank accounts breathe a sigh of relief, I’m pleased to bring you this evening’s Race Report. Once again, it is a relatively quiet one, but ends with EXCITING NEWS.

Jo celebrates gold at Bushy Park

In parkrun news, there were first placed finishes for Mairead O’Rourke (24.06 at Church Mead), Becs Nkoane (18.26 at Northala Fields - also an all-time PB) and Thomas Emery (16.41 at Black Park).
