KEN Warner broke new ground on Saturday when he became the first Leverhulme Park regular to chalk up 300 parkruns.

And what makes his achievement even more special is that the 50-54 age-group runner has done every one of his parkruns at Bolton.

He has run Bolton parkrun most Saturdays virtually throughout the event’s six-and-a-half-year history, completing his first 5k around the track, trails and pathways of Leverhulme Park in April, 2011, just a few weeks after its first-ever staging.

He crossed the line in 95th position on his 300th appearance in a time of 26mins 19secs, four minutes and three seconds slower than his personal best set just over two years ago.

One runner who is more accustomed to PBs of late is Angela Owen who set her third in a row on Saturday and her fifth in her last seven appearances.

The 55-59 age-category runner clocked 36:32, 18 seconds faster than the previous week and more than six minutes quicker than she ran on the first of her 18 appearances at Bolton in April.

At the head of the field Ben Forrest was first across the line in 18mins.

The 15-17 age-group Rossendale Harrier was followed home by three Horwich RMI Harriers Paul Massey, Lewis Wilkes and Thomas Massey.

The first finisher to record a PB was Mark Cannon on his eighth appearance at Bolton parkrun.

The 55-59 age-group runner is no stranger to PBs with six in his last seven attempts, his 20:05 time on Saturday – which was good enough for seventh position – being seven seconds faster than his previous fastest recorded seven days earlier.

One position behind him in eighth was 15-17 age-category runner Christopher Peacock who also set a new PB.

He beat his previous best mark by 24 seconds when he crossed the line in 20:10 on his ninth appearance at Bolton.
