It was a great sunny morning for Havant parkrun event number 256.

Kev Gale finished first with a time of 19min 19sec.

A total of 260 people finished the 5k in the glorious weather at Staunton Country Park.

All parkruns rely on volunteers and it was a super team again at Havant who made the event possible.
