parkrunday 14th May 2022

There were 49 HPH Women and 44 HPH Men out parkrunning across 39 different venues this week. Four new venues were added to the HPH list – three in the UK and one in Australia. Philip Fisher added Henlow Bridge Lakes in Bedfordshire where the course is around the lakes at the centre of the associated campsite and angling centre (appropriate for a Fisher). It is also close to RAF Henlow where my dad did his basic training after signing up with the RAF in 1949. Joe Lawley added Markshall Estate near Colchester. The course goes around artificial lakes that were originally dug out by Roundhead troops camped at Markshall Estate during the Siege of Colchester in 1648. Alongside is the site of Earls Colne Airfield which was a bomber station used by the RAF and USAAF between 1942 and 1955. Frazer Carr added Storeys Field in Cambridge. The course is alongside the Storey’s Field Community Centre and Nursery which has won architectural awards including the 2018 Brick Development Association Supreme Award. Cara Gates added Lillydale Lake on the outskirts of Melbourne in Australia. The course is alongside the artificial lake which was constructed as a flood prevention measure in the low lying area around Olinda Creek as well as providing recreational facilities. The park has one of the best children’s playgrounds found throughout Melbourne’s parks and gardens. It has climbing frames, monkey bars, swings and flying foxes (Which I now know is what Australians call a zip wire and is nothing to do with my dad).

There were two first finshing Hyde Park Harriers. These were Michael Vargas in 18:20 at Favorita parkrun in Palermo, Italy and Clare Evans in 25:07 at Middleton Woods. There were 8 PBs. These were by Fleur Siswick with 24:02 at Woodhouse Moor; Alexander Perkin with 24:22 at Roundhay; Paul Dickens with 25:00 at Ally Pally; Alex Fells with 24:37 at Oakwell Hall; Gemma Newman with 26:30 at Bramley; Danni Bryant with 26:23 and Caroline Young with 27:13 at Middleton Woods; and Robin Culshaw with 24:16 at Grove Fields.

Top female Age Grade% was 76.26% by Jane Prust at Isabel Trail and top male Age Grade% was 75.00% by Mike Gallagher at York.
