• 1:27
  Speaker 1: steps outside the box and does something. I mean, Martin's

• 3:36
  Speaker 1: head of park runs. Kay Evans went to Zieda Park

  Speaker 1: Redne Park Junior park Run where one hundred and five
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: juniors took part, fourteen first timers, twenty seven pbs and
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: twenty three volunteers. It was a happy sad day for
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: one junior, Guy Slingsby, because it was his last park
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: run as a junior. He's now turns fifteen and he's
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: class as a senior so he can't join in now.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Guy has dominated the juniors in recent times, but he's
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: also won the senior part park run in the past
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: and he's a very exciting prospect. Believe me. The volunteers
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: made a special thank you. This was so funny, have
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: a look at it on my Facebook page. They all
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: put on their Guy Slingsby look like masks and gave
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: him a round of applause and his fellow runners awarded
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: him a memento. Now, Guy, not only he doesn't only run,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: you know, but when he finishes, because he's the first
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: one back. He can often be seen at the finish
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: line helping out and bringing in the bar codes and
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: things like that. So I'm hoping I spoke to his
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: mum and I'm hoping to get hold of Pat Hannis
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: from the Folks and Running Club and see if we
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: can get Guy in with his mum and we do
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: a little special on the Folks and the Youth because
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: of the track that is getting bigger and bigger. Now
