BOLTON parkrun stalwart Neil Bonnar continued his recent improvement by clocking his fastest time for four years and four months on Saturday.

The 50-54 age group runner crossed the line in 25mins 2secs, the quickest he has covered the 5k course around the track, paths and trails of Leverhulme Park in his last 149 runs since November, 2012 and was good enough to give him 89th position out of 352 runners who took part.

It was the biggest attendance at Bolton since April 16 last year when 353 ran and is the third successive week the event has attracted more than 300 runners. The record attendance for the Bolton parkrun, which started on February 5, 2011, is 384.

With the last six events attracting 352, 332, 300, 297, 296 and 350 runners and the warmer weather coming it could just be a matter of time before a new attendance record is set.
