V - Aber Park Run Record 2022 (Vic Flds)

We have just witnessed local history at Aberystwyth Parkrun this morning.

AAC member and The Vorsprung Project coached and managed runner Janoš Vranek has delivered on his promise to bring the Aberystywth Parkrun record back to a local AAC runner!

On a clear crisp morning, conditions were near-perfect for the attempt. He broke the record by 4 seconds coming in at 15:08s, just shy of a targeted sub-15:00s!

With the support of his Vorsprung training partners: Enid Gruffudd, Freya Pritchard and Rhys Jeremiah warming-up with him; fellow Vorsprung members running with him Rose and Amanda Mallows, Gruff Lewis, Eleias Gruffudd, Arthur Finney, Patrick Finney and Laura Guillaume; the amazing support of everyone running; and the volunteer stewards who made this possible.

We are so proud of him and pleased we have such a great community support.

The Vorsprung Project would like to thank the everyone, and especially all the time-keepers and the race director on the day, plus Nick Thompson who helped publicise and support the effort.

We will be taking a break form Parkrun for a while, now, as winter training starts in a weeks time. But, will be supporting from afar.

Thank you everyone for your kind wishes and support. We hope to deliver more at Aber 10k and into 2023.
