Also fantastic to see that Swinton Running Club have pretty much taken ownership of the Worsley Woods Parkrun - which is a great course by the way.

Indeed, Danbert, Swinton have been a great support. For our 11th event (which I think you ran?) they made a day of it with all runners who were available taking part and those injured helping out as Marshals....gave us a record turnout of 124 I think.

For me, the best thing has been to see those who have never done anything like it taking part and coming back every week. Even one of my neighbours who hasn't run since being chased by the police as a boy has battled his way round the course. Plenty of kids as well.
