Jo's Jogging Journal 30 Sep-6th October

This week’s instalment of the weekly results round up is much longer than usual.  Lots of PWRs had decided to race this weekend and our facebook page was a hive of activity. This results reporter would like to request a much quieter weekend next week. Or my brain might explode.

To start with Saturday, a huge amount of us turned up at Bromley parkrun. It was pacer week and clearly the thought of a new PB, in addition to the start of the parkrun Grand Prix month, got lots of us out of bed. Petts Wood Runners accounted for just fewer than 10% of the total runners on Saturday and it is great to see
month on month our runners donning the pacer vests to help other runners.  Andrew Breese, John Aitken Dyte got PB’s at Bromley, Jane Branch at Bexley, Wendy Tung at Orpington and Stu Mackenzie at Greenwich. There was also a bit  of parkrun tourism by the Laing family at Shorne Woods, Toni Crow at Brighton and Emma Coakley at Preston Park.
