Happy birthday Cyril xx
Colby Parkrun No. 266 - 14/09/2019
What amazing (slightly chilly) morning for a run.
Colby buzzed with over 200 runners from around the world who've come to Pembrokeshire for a great weekend of sport including the Saundersfoot Triathlon today and tomorrow, Ironman Wales. Good luck to all the regular Colby Parkrunners who are competing in these events (we missed you this morning).
We had loads to celebrate with it being Cyril’s birthday, who's one of our core volunteers, there for us come rain or shine, have a happy day Cyril, and eat lots of cake. A runner from Swansea completed their 100th run, and when I was checking the results, I came across Simon Greenhill who today completed his (drum roll) 600th Parkrun! 600 that is truly amazing. Congratulations.
Well done to the 13 first-time Parkrunners, welcome to the family, hope you’ve got your breath back and to those 27 runners who gained a PB all I can say is brilliant effort, please remind me how it felt.
Wishing all those inspirational individuals good luck for the rest of the weekend’s events from our very own Linda and Andrew to all our visiting Ironwomen and men, and to Cleo wishing you the very best next week.
Excellent morning’s work! See you next week on the start line. H
