It was another super-busy, fast, and very warm Conwy parkrun last Saturday with many entrants travelling from far and wide just to enjoy the splendours of this picturesque 5k course.
Steve Mason led home a team of seventeen North Wales Road Runners, with many taking it steady due to other competing fixtures over the weekend. Steve enjoyed a good run however, finishing in 15th place in 21.39, with Adam Lemalle 18th in 21.46, and Benjamin Brummitt 35th in 22.37, and 3rd in his SM30 age cat.
Master vet Barrie Wells recorded an excellent time of 24.43, and won his VM70 cat in 77th place, with Karen Butler on top form in 85th in 25.08, with a new course PB, and she also won her VM65 age cat. Veteran Tony Gibson finished in 87th place in 25.27, and he was 3rd in his VM65 cat. Master vet Rob Fryer claimed the 2nd spot in his VM70 cat in 26.29, in 111th place, and Tony Price-Jones finished 130th in 27.37.
Veteran Len Jackson was 164th in 29.23, and he ran in the same parkrun with his two sons, Owen and Daniel, with the latter runner finishing well in 2nd place overall in 19.05, whilst Owen also ran very well in 95th place in 25.41.
Fellow vet John O’Shea was 169th in 29.31, with Richard Scamans 171st in 29.36. Nia Lister finished in 243rd place in 32.59, with Daniel Hennell sharing the exact same time. Elizabeth Driscoll was 261st in 34.01, with Hannah Griffith 263rd in 34.02, and Gwen Charlton was 295th in 35.57, with Rachel Morris 304th in 37.05.
