BBC weather suggested it was 26 degrees when our parkrun started. We provided half-way refreshments! Welcomed by nearly all.

Wow, good for them. We asked everyone to bring their own. We can’t look after 475 runners like that.

The refreshment was water pistols! We also had cakes at the end for our 84 year old regular 🏅

Fantastic, I didn’t look closely enough! The Vegan runners had cakes today but they didn’t share them. ☹️

We had a group of vegan runners today including a woman who came first by over a minute and equaled the women’s record! Sadly the cakes weren’t vegan today.
