Report written by Nick Moore
Conditions in the skies were distinctly uncertain at the Fields this morning as the team celebrated event #321, but the clouds didn't put off the 18 enthusiastic junior parkrunners or the 10 willing high vizzed volunteers.
Sooz successfully requisitioned a few additional volunteers to be Marshalls around the course, and then led the warm up under the big tree, and at just after 9 it really was "3,2,1" and the familiar rush to the first turning point.
Fortunately it was dry underfoot, so no slips or slides along the way, and just over 9 minutes later we had our first finisher, followed by the 17 other runners and walkers, all cheered enthusiastically down the finishing straight. With 2 first timers and 5 personal bests it was clearly another successful morning on the course.
Same time next week under the big tree for more fun at the Fields.
parkrun organise free, weekly, 2km timed runs for young people around the world. They are open to 4-14 year olds, free, and are safe and easy to take part in.
