Following a failed attempt to bring the Run Wales Social Running Celebration Relay<\/a> to Cwmbran parkrun<\/a> early this year, we were delighted that members of the fun and friendly social running group, Easy Pacers Cwmbran<\/a> were able to take the official baton around this lovely course in warmer conditions this weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Celebration relay provides 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.  We are encouraging groups to support their local parkrun by offering to volunteer as well as run, jog or walk at the relay events.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

40\/48: Celebration Relay Run Report – Cwmbran parkrun <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We all had a lovely time running the Cwmbran parkrun<\/a> course with many of our Easy Pacers<\/a> taking part, and also volunteering! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We ran the summer course which takes in the play park and the boating lake and much of it is on a path through the trees. It really is a beautiful course!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Easy Pacers<\/a> run on a Monday night and then again on a Thursday night – that one is called the pub run as it always ends at a drinks venue! We encourage runners of all abilities to come along with 4 groups going out at different paces and distances.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The eagle-eyed amongst you may have noticed that the goalposts (and proposed finish date) for Run Wales Celebration Relay have shifted this week, as we now have a total of 48 parkrun events in Wales! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Last week, the new volunteer team at Old Railway Trail parkrun, Llangollen<\/a> welcomed 180 runners, joggers and walkers to their picturesque parkrun, having had a whopping 249 people attend their inaugural event. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

With only 8 parkrun events not yet attended, we look forward to bringing the official Run Wales relay baton to Llangollen in a few weeks time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

This week 253 people ran, jogged and walked the course, of whom 35 were first timers and 39 recorded new Personal Bests. Representatives of 22 different clubs took part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event was made possible by 27 volunteers:

Richard John LLOYD \u2022 Julie Lorraine ROCHE \u2022 Glyn WORTH \u2022 Stella SYMONS \u2022 Helen GWILLIAM \u2022 Matthew LLOYD \u2022 Stephen WILLIAMS \u2022 Kelly CAMERON \u2022 Emma BAGLEY \u2022 Mark PROSSER \u2022 Charlie SIBLEY \u2022 Stuart BALL \u2022 Leonie ROBERTS \u2022 George FIRTH \u2022 Phillip ALLSOPP \u2022 Stewart SEABORNE \u2022 Andrew DAVIES \u2022 David HAPTON \u2022 Alison DAVIS \u2022 Helen BROWN \u2022 Adrian GWILLIAM \u2022 Megan JACKSON \u2022 Amy YEO \u2022 Kyle HARVEY \u2022 John DAVIES \u2022 Sarah BREWSTER \u2022 Clair MOGFORD<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today’s full results and a complete event history can be found on the Cwmbran parkrun Results Page<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cwmbran parkrun started on 18th June 2016. Since then 7,432 participants have completed 47,074 parkruns covering a total distance of 235,370 km, including 7,979 new Personal Bests. A total of 782 individuals have volunteered 6,782 times.<\/p>\n\n\n

The Easy Pacers<\/a> handed the Celebration Relay baton to a member of Pontypool Phoenix Runners after this week’s event. We look forward to hearing how they get on at Pontypool parkrun<\/a> next Saturday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
