It's a Tone Zone takeover at the parkrun - and (almost) at the Great South Run

At the Bognor parkrun it was the Tone Zone takeover day. The parkrun is a weekly, free 5k timed event, where people come along to run or walk the course.

For the 220th Bognor parkrun, Tone Zone were running the show, providing volunteers and pacers from 20 minutes up to 35 minutes to help people better their times.

A record number of Tone Zone runners ran, with 58 turning out to help raise the profile of the club and eight grabbing PBs.

There was lots of positive feedback about how the pacers had helped runners grab a personal best or sneak under a specific time barrier.

On Sunday the ten-mile Great South Run in Portsmouth had 27 Tone Zone runners involved.

Daryl Fairbrother was first home for the club, finishing in a very quick 1:10. Gary Pidgeon sped to a big personal best time of 1:13. Adam Norgett and Helana Wilmers also beat their previous personal bests.

Karen Vilday, Vicky Cooper, Susi Brigs and Sam Miles all finished in 1:30. Sarah Spurr, Rebecca Holden and Rachel George all ran strong races and finished close together in 1:45.
