Brett's BFC Members parkrun review 4th January 2025
A total of 74 parkrunners took part at Great Salterns parkrun event #161
The course was wetter in a couple of places but not too bad. Yarien Slevin continued his recent good times and was close to his PB, and I managed to grab 2nd place in the Age-Geaded Percentages.

Thanks to the volunteers
We are very grateful to the volunteers who made this event happen: Stefanie ARNOLD, Kevin AYLWARD, Paula BLAIN, Kev BUDD, Kate ENGLISH, Ian GREGORY, Louise GRIFFIN, Robert MARSH, Helen MAYHEAD, Edward MORRIS, Robert NEWMAN, Janet SAMPSON, Jason SMITH, Debbie SPICER, Samuel WINTON
Why not get involved and volunteer? For this Saturday, the 11th we could do with another on set-up (from 8am) and someone on close down plus 2 more marshals would be good. You may be resting from running due to Stubbington on the following day, but can still help also if you are injured or, more importantly, just to do 1 stint per year from each parkrunner would make such a difference.
