Report written by Sevan
GoodGym were back volunteering at Acton Junior parkrun, which coincided with another beautiful morning. This might've been the reason for the bumper turnout (reader, you can decide yourselves if it was the weather or GoodGym presence).
There were 87 runners in total who completed the course, with the regular volunteers being amazed at how the numbers had increased recently. GoodGymers too had turned out in numbers, with Harvey, Alan and Joanna marshalling, Divy making a late entrance as a barcode scanner, while Sevan took Divy's place as timekeeper and Chikako was today's VI guide.
There were 2 other GoodGymer marshals who stopped a serious crime. There was a cone thief disguised as a Junior parkrunner at today's event. Michelle and Kash foiled their audatious bid to steal cones from the funnel, that would've sent the children behind them straight past the funnel and running off the edge of a cliff like Wile E. Coyote. Well done Michelle and Kash 👏
We'll be back at Acton Junior parkrun next month to cheer the runners and possibly foil more crime.
That's all folks!
