Cas Tigers have asked us to pass on their thanks to everyone from Team Savvy who volunteered and supported the first Cas 10K today — and to everyone else who gave their time to help make the event happen. 🙌

Events like this, and parkrun every week, simply don’t happen without volunteers giving up their time to support others and help things run smoothly. 🧡

A huge thank you to everyone who volunteered today, and to those who continue to give their time at events across our community. 👏

Hopefully the first of many for the Cas 10K. 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Massive turnout for the inaugural Castleford 10K today! 🙌🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

A massive well done to everyone who took part, everyone who came out to support, and all of the volunteers who helped make the event happen.

Thanks Castleford Tigers RLFC Castleford Tigers Foundation Pontefract 10K

I know everyone from the club absolutely loved it. There are already hundreds of photos floating around, so I think we’ll be sharing pictures and stories all week! 📸

Keep an eye on our socials, tag us in your posts and stories, and send us your pictures too.

And if today has given you the running bug, we’re back tomorrow at 6:30pm from CCC If you fancy coming along, just give us a shout. 🧡🧡🧡

75KM ULTRA. 🤯👏

With all the excitement around the Great North Run and the Vale of York Half Marathon today, we didn’t want this one to get lost.

A massive congratulations to Dean, who yesterday completed The Lap Ultra in the Lake District, finishing in an official chip time of 12:43:53. 💪⛰️

And this is what makes it even better…

In Dean’s own words, not long after joining Savvy he attempted Pontefract parkrun and stopped at around 4K on FOUR separate occasions.

Fast forward to yesterday…

75KM. An ultra. In the Lake District.

That is some journey. 🙌

From struggling to finish a 5K to spending nearly 13 hours out there tackling an ultra — you should be incredibly proud of yourself, Dean. We certainly are.

His watch even gave up before he did, dying at around 63K. 😂⌚

No doubt you’ve been enjoying a well-deserved rest today, watching a bit of footy and the F1 — and I’m guessing with a very well-earned beer in hand. 🍺😂

Huge congratulations from everyone at Savvy Park Runrz, Dean. Absolutely smashed it. 🧡

🐶 🐶 Clearly the real stars of last night’s Naked Runner… 😂

Another brilliant Savvy Naked Runner last night — predict your 5K time, ditch the Garmin, Apple Watch, Strava and every other bit of tech… then see how well you actually know your pace.

Some ridiculously close predictions again, but Scott took the win — just TWO SECONDS away from his predicted time! He knew didn’t he… causally relaxing leaning on the post 🤯

Last year’s winner was only one second out, Scott was two seconds out this year… so surely somebody is going to absolutely nail it eventually?!

🎯 And when somebody does hit their predicted time exactly, there might just have to be an amazing prize waiting for them… 👀

A massive thank you to Hannah, our club captain, for organising it all, and to all of the volunteers who gave up their time to support the event. These nights don’t happen without people stepping up and helping out, so it’s hugely appreciated. 🙌

Great turnout, loads of laughs and exactly what these club nights are all about.

Thanks to everyone who came along — runners, supporters and, most importantly, Nova and Rosie. 🐕❤️

Feel free to tag anyone or any local clubs who might be able to help 👍

🏃‍♂️ TEAM SAVVY’S NAKED RUNNER RETURNS THIS WEDNESDAY! 👀😂

And before anyone gets excited… PLEASE WEAR CLOTHES. 😂

The challenge is simple: predict your 5K finish time, then run completely technology-free.

⌚ No Garmin
📱 No Apple Watch
🚫 No Strava
🚫 No checking your pace

Just you, your legs and your judgement.

Last year’s winner Ben finished just ONE SECOND away from his predicted time! 🤯 Can anyone go one better and get it bang on this year? 🎯

⚠️ Remember to get your predicted time to Hannah in advance. Drop her a DM if you haven’t already, or make sure you arrive early enough on Wednesday to give her your time before we start.

Hannah will then crunch the numbers.. hopefully all night to work out the winner 😂

📍 Greenway
📅 Wednesday
🏃 5K Naked Runner

Naked means no tech… keep your kit on! 😂

Can’t wait to see you all! 🧡

Bar will be open to catch up for a social afterwards!!
