Celebrating Run Sandymoor Couch to 5K Graduates at Widnes Victoria Park Parkrun!

This Saturday was a monumental day for the recent graduates of the Run Sandymoors Couch to 5K program as they successfully completed their first 5K run at the Widnes Victoria Park Parkrun! It was an inspiring sight to see the group, who started their journey just 9 weeks ago, cross the finish line with smiles and high spirits.

A huge shoutout to all the participants who showed incredible determination and grit throughout the program. Starting from scratch and pushing through to 5 kilometers is no small feat, and each of you has proven that with perseverance, anything is achievable!

Special thanks to our amazing coaches and volunteers who have been there every step of the way, providing guidance, support, and motivation. Your dedication to helping others achieve their fitness goals is truly commendable.

Let’s also applaud the warm and welcoming community of runners at Widnes Victoria Park Parkrun who cheered on our graduates. Your support made this event even more special for everyone involved.

Here’s to many more runs and continued success on your fitness journey! Remember, this is just the beginning—keep lacing up those trainers, and who knows where your feet will take you next!

Feel free to share your experiences, photos, and future running plans in the comments. Let’s keep the momentum going!

 

Run Sandymoor – Dave Roots Memorial 2022

Annually, the club fondly remembers a much loved member who sadly passed away in 2018 by organising and taking part in a 5k and 10k run dressed in bright clothes and neon colours.

A grand total of £610 was raised via entry fees, raffle, refreshments and is to be donated to Papyrus, the mental health charity.

Run Sandymoor would like to thank all those who donated and took part in the event.
