On a glorious morning at Killerton Park Run Sidmouth Running club member David Skinner completed his 200th parkrun.

David’s first park run was in January 2016 and in that time he has taken part in four Christmas Day park runs and broken 30 minute on 6 occasions. David who only started running when he was 68 3/4 and runs in the VM75-79 category has also completed another park run challenge.  The Mighty Green has travelled over 15,198km to visit 51 park run locations and has successfully run the park run alphabet in the UK as his recent holiday to Durham and Scotland saw him run in the Jubilee parkrun at Spennymoor and the Vogrie park run near Edinburgh.  (There isn’t a X or Z).

Huge congratulations from SRC who look forward to seeing what your next challenge will be!
