Bolton parkrun report and results from Saturday's event

The 20-24 age-category runner is one of the most familiar faces at parkrun, having been a regular runner, official and volunteer since it started in 2011.

He has waited 61 runs and 27 months to beat his fastest time of 18mins 38secs, and the Burnden Road Runner did it in style on Saturday when he was third to cross the line in 18:21 on his 229th run around the 5k course.

First to finish was Horwich RMI Harrier Luke Massey in 17:53 around the track, trails and paths of Leverhulme Park.

It was the fifth appearance the 18-19 age-category runner has made at the Bolton event in three years, and he finished 22 seconds in front of second finisher, Bolton United Harrier Shay Walker.

Another Horwich Harrier, Paul Massey, was fourth to finish and Lindsey Brindle made it three from that club in the top six when she went through the finish line in 19:27.

It was 25 seconds faster than her previous quickest parkrun and maintained her 100 per cent record of setting PBs on her fourth Bolton parkrun of the year as she continues to get back to her best following serious injury last year when she suffered a fractured spine.

One place in front of her was 25-29 age-category runner Jon Evans who set his second PB in successive runs.

He finished in 18:46 on his 20th parkrun – all of them having been at Bolton – which was was 18 seconds faster than his previous run last month and the first time he had dipped under the 19-minute mark.

Another personal landmark was set by Andrew Hardingham who broke the 20-minute mark for the first time – his first PB since 2012 on his 42nd run at Bolton.

The 30-34 age-category Burnden Road Runner was eighth to finish in 19:55.
