We received this lovely email today and was given permission to share it with you all. Once again thank you to everyone concerned - we should all be so proud what a brilliant parkrun we have :- My name is Daniel McGowan and I am the fool that managed to run into the bridge yesterday, I wanted to thank everyone who stopped to help, you were all fantastic and although I was quite embarrassed to hit the “big blue metal bridge” I did need help - thank you. I had a couple of hours in A&E and now have a rather large blob of glue weaving its way through my head - my kids are quite impressed with it anyway! One lady who was attending to me used her top to stem the flow from the wound and apply pressure, the nurses told me that the pressure made a big difference and will make sure I heal more quickly, I wondered if there was a way of finding out who this lady was so that I can replace her top and say thanks to her and others? Finally, sorry to everyone who had the distraction yesterday, I cannot tell you the number of times | have run under that bridge, even in the dark. I certainly hope nobody is thinking of doing anything unnecessary from a health and safety perspective, it was my own stupid fault, I was looking down at my watch, end of story. I live in town and despite the bump it felt great to be part of the running community yesterday.
