Perfect conditions this morning at the Fields, and clearly 50 enthusiatic junior runners thought so too, including two first timers who sped round the two lap course at top speed to claim the top two positions - congratulations to them and hopefully they'll be back again, along with our other first timers, all of whom were doing their first ever junior parkruns.

Someone who definitely wasn't attending her first junior parkrun was Sarah whom we welcomed back after a few weeks away, and who made her tree her home once again - in fact we had a great volunteer turnout with a mix of parkrunners, DoE and willing parents all keen to put on the high viz, and all of whom made today's event run smoothly and made Nick's life as today's Run Director so much easier!

More of the same next week under the big tree, where hopefully it'll be a repeat of today's blue skies and bright sunshine, and super speedy performances.

Yet again Mr T had a perfect turn of phrase to describe the mushrooms that I'd bought for him last week in Tesco. To be fair (and not to do down Tesco's mushrooms - other supermarket brands are also available...), he did say that after a couple of days in the fridge, the mushrooms were much softer, and the omelette that he cooked up with them was lovely. I did though note that they were absent from this week's list...
