PARKRUN PROFILE

I know for a fact that several of our runners are prolific parkrunners, attending the free weekly timed 5k runs every week, come rain or shine. Parkrun is an amazing place where runners of all abilities come together every Saturday to socialise, exercise and compete (shame that didn't end with -ise). For many this ritual marks the real start to the weekend.

One of our groups most prolific parkrunners, Jenni Owens, has run (at the time of writing) 487 events. I believe most of these have been at the Cramond course where the flatness of the course is balanced by the horrendous winds.

Jenni has also been an enthusiastic supporter to Dom and I in setting up the club and her enthusiasm has been integral to getting this club set up. So enthusiastic is Jenni about WERC and parkrun that she was dismayed she couldn't yet select us as her official group on her parkrun results.

So she took matters into her own hands...and now she, and you, can run under the West Edinburgh Running Club flag as you smash your 5k PBS at parkrun on a weekly basis.

Attaching West Edinburgh Running Club to your parkrun profile is super simple and just a matter of following these simple steps:

Log into Parkrun account. 

Edit group. Type in west Edinburgh running club - click join

Told you it was simple.

Thanks Jenni!
