ooh, that was a chilly morning! But seeing 68 juniors getting to take part in the first junior parkrun of the year definitely warmed the heart!

Claire, Emily, Maurice, Nigel and Karen gathered at the bandstand this icily-cold morning ready for an amazing morning of fun. Lots of juniors joined us for the first time, and today we saw two big milestones - one junior was awarded a wristband and badge for completing 100 junior parkruns! Simply amazing! The other was one of our most regular juniors, who was at the first event back in May 2021, got the first place for the first time!

Tasks done today by GoodGym included event set up, volunteer coordinator, marshaling around the course, timekeeper, event close down, and communications on social media. Well done everyone! We deserved the reward of hot drinks and great company afterwards in the cafe - and very impressed that Claire and Emily both got active and went running afterwards - sure was the best way to get warm today!
