A perfect morning in Prestatyn with just a small amount of wind set up the launch of the Run Wales Celebration Relay<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Celebration relay\u00a0provides all Run Wales registered groups<\/a> with a tremendous opportunity to showcase their group, sharing information about their activities and encouraging more people to participate in social running outside of their regular weekly parkrun.\u00a0 We are encouraging groups to support their local parkrun by offering to volunteer as well as run, jog or walk at the relay events.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1\/46: Celebration Relay Run Report – Nova Prestatyn parkrun <\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

Kicking off the relay, local group Rhyl Runners<\/a> were out in force to volunteer and run the Nova Prestatyn parkrun<\/a> course. With many members of the group already actively supporting the event it was fantastic to shout about our wonderful group. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rhyl Runners has been going for 4 \u00bd years and we welcome anyone from beginners to those more experience. We have a variety of members who cover different distances and paces, from 5km to ultra-marathons. Whatever your ability we cater for you, with 3 awesome Run Leaders who will help you to settle in and find your feet! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our group members took on a variety of roles today including marshals, finish tokens, timekeeper, first timers briefing and tailwalker. Plus we had 2 runners carrying the baton around the course.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The course here is mostly run along the prom, starting at the west end of the Nova building. The baton hit some bumps as the route veers off the prom and along the ‘off-road’ section of the course across the common and along the sandy track. It is great to have a variety of surfaces to run on before getting back on the prom and heading to the finish line next to the Offa’s Dyke sculpture (the polo mint).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve never volunteered before then have a look at the variety of roles available, as well as ensuring that the event goes ahead it will give you a huge sense of satisfaction and a big smile on your face to cheer on all the participants. Dave and the team would appreciate your email to be added to the parkrun volunteer roster<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Congratulations\u00a0to the 85 people who completed Nova Prestatyn parkrun this week, this included 21 first timers to the event. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Huge\u00a0congratulations\u00a0to parkrun regular runner and volunteer Jan Carfoot who finished her 100th parkrun today. Well done Jan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

So the relay baton has started its journey to every parkrun in Wales, courtesy of our amazing Run Wales groups, as they celebrate and share the joys of social running. You can follow the baton’s progress<\/a> and find out how to get involved<\/a> as it continues its journey towards a big finish with a mass participation event next year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
