As the recent heatwave continued in the weekend, Brid Road Runners Juniors also turned up the temperature at local parkruns with sizzling performances from several of the club's youngsters.
Alfie Verner's scintillating performance at Sewerby sliced over 30 seconds off his previous best time.
Smashing through the sub '22 minute marker in 21:43, the talented JM10 runner demonstrated the speed and stamina which has seen him deliver superb performances at shorter and longer distances, throughout the summer.
Alfie was first over the line followed in by very strong performances from the club's female juniors Annabelle Miller 22:14 and Oceane Price 22:45, Maelys Price 24:19 and Rebecca Miller in 24:45.
Joined by his clubmate, and debutant at parkrun, Riley Marsh, both boys ran in their charity shirts to promote their upcoming charity run for Sheffield Children's Hospital.
Riley's very impressive first time run at Sewerby in 25:18 showed the fruits of his commitment to his talent and fundraising.
Alfie Briggs completed the hosts’ line up with a determined 31:46 run.
At Hull parkrun, Tyler Choat took his recent excellent form to the East Hull course and recorded a new PB time of 20:12.
Lily Choat's new PB at Hull Parkrun and the 5k distance saw a 40-second improvement and a first time sub 27-minute run.
Further afield both Charlie and Eddy Johnson put in excellent performances in the children's event at Endure 24 at Bramham Park in Leeds.
Both boys put in excellent performances, despite very tough and wet conditions on the trail course, and provided invaluable support and encouragement for the senior club members at the endurance event.
