THE 82nd Melksham parkrun took place on Saturday 3rd August which saw 234 runners take part, including Kelly Davies who celebrated her 50th parkrun.
One runner even came all the way from Cape Town to take part, as well as 31 first timers and 53 runners achieving a personal best.
To celebrate her 50th parkrun, Kelly Davies was joined with her friends running the 5km circuit in tutus, enjoying a glass of bubbly at the end.
The parkrun Melksham team is looking for more people to sign up as a volunteer as without them, the event cannot go ahead.
If you would like to volunteer then contact Sam via email on melkshamhelpers@parkrun.com.
Also, a reminder to runners that the parkrun has a planned cancellation on Saturday 31st August due to the River and Food festival.
There will also be a pacers week organised by Devizes Running Club on Saturday 14th September.
