One of the volunteers, run director of Shrewsbury Park Run, Debbie Armstrong, shared tales of her"insane" day. On one occasion, Debbie - who was manning the closure at Pengwern Road - said she was forced to stand in front of a car whose driver was insistent they were coming through the closure. "One lady was coming through whether I stopped her or not. I stepped in front of her car and said 'If you're coming through you're running me over', and she came forward anyway.

Debbie said other volunteers faced similar experiences at other closure points, with one fellow volunteer having plastic bottles thrown at her on Porthill.
