"I felt worried my fitness would be an issue but quickly I realised how easy it became. The highlight was being cheered on by everyone and making friends." πŸƒ

Ellie joined our Couch to 5K course last year as a returning runner and hasn't looked back. Our next course starts Tuesday 8 September. πŸ‘Ÿ

Ellie - pictured second from right on a run out in March. Cold and blustery but look at those cheesy grins!!

A huge well done to Patrick and Jacob, who yesterday took on the Tartan Games. They had a go at a range of different tracks and field disciplines. What a credit to the club lads πŸ‘πŸŠ

No two sessions are the same at DCH, and here's conclusive proof of that! Femke's "enchanted lego run" went down a storm with the Senior Endurance and Senior Transition Group guys!

The term "legend" is overused in sport, but not when it comes to our Marian!

Today Marian celebrated completing her 300th parkeun at . She took part in our Couch to 5k course a few years ago and has since been a mainstay of our fantastic Transition Group.

Marian is a lovely person, and epitomises the parkrun spirit - Enjoying the run, working hard, and always trying her best!

Well done Marian! πŸ’ͺ🍊

Great night at the Quayside 5k.

In the ladies race Megan kept up her phenomenal form with a 3rd place (16.21) finish, before Rory led home our men's team in an incredible 15.43. Both have been on fire πŸ”₯ in recent months, and there was no sign of that letting up in this race!

Other notable performances were from Neil, a recent new recruit repping our Transition Group. He stormed home in 27 minutes, whilst Alex (a product of our Transition Group) blitzed the 10k race in a new PB of 37.32.

Top running guys! Orange 🍊

Incredible performances at the last weekend. Both Phil and Steve tackled the 100 Mile event, completing the epic runs with a smile on their faces! Phil picked up the "500 slate", after achieving his 5th finish in this race, and also got a 1st MV50 finish.

Great work lads! 🧑
