Aloha! This weekend, under bright blue skies, Swindon became a tropical paradise ποΈ and we had a lot of fun in the sun π
It was a GoodGym takeover for Swindon's virtual parkrun and a Hawaii 5-0 theme gave the opportunity to escape winter and release those Hawaiian shirts and beachwear from the depths of the wardrobe.π©³π And the Swindon running community did not disappoint - with the brightness of the outfits matching the vibrancy and warmth of our running family.
Our fabulous team of virtual pacers, tailwalkers and marshalls supported 144 runners and walkers, with 15 people ringing the PB bell π. 20 minute pacer Paul was quick off the mark in the most magnificent grass skirt. Alexandra was spot on with the 30 minute pacing, as were Cath and Annie in her pawsome outfit πΆ.
With the news of the roadmap for the return of parkrun, we hope that we'll be together again soon. Maybe for a celebration cake -meanwhile Ashleigh kindly offered virtual slices of a very real cake π...it's the thought that counts?!
