Goodgym Islington return to Caledonian Road Junior parkrun (also known as Clocktower parkrun) this Sunday morning, after receiving a request from Helen and the core event team.

This free weekly timed 2km running event, open to youngsters aged 4-14 (and their parents and guardians attempting to keep up with) is run entirely by local volunteers. In order for us to create a safe course for children to run un-aided and independently, we require marshals like Simon and Charlotte to guide the runners around the route and to block off exits to busy roads. On the other side, time keepers and finishing token helpers like John are on hand to record the finishing positions and times for every participant.

We were treated to a beautiful sunny morning, and thoroughly enjoyed contributing to holding this lovely community event.
