 Freedom Parkrun – 4 September 2014

As the Rovers Bells were at home last Thursday we decided to run a fake parkrun, about 40 runners took part from across the club, with a couple of new faces.  We had a great time with our kids playing in the parks whilst we ran.  Vicky Davies was saving herself for the GNR and she was kind enough to record the times, well done everyone.  We will do this again!
