We had 6 volunteers this morning for a fresh and breezy Pitshanger Junior parkrun. As with Acton Juniors, the number of runners was much higher than when we helped out in February, with 50 finishers this time!

Kash and Harvey took their regular roles as barcode scanners, while Michelle, Alan, Samar and Sevan headed onto the course as marshals.

Michelle and Alan had impressively run to the park from Chiswick and also came dressed in matching clothes. They were both showing off their black GoodGym t-shirts with Michelle in a bright pink base layer and Alan in bright blue. It was like they'd planned it, but may have been complete chance.

The rain yesterday had left the course wet, with big puddles near Michelle and Sevan's marshal posts. They were asked to warn the runners of the dangers ahead. Some children and adults took heed of the warning and ran around the water. Others took it as a challenge and shouted "I'm going to run through that!". That was the children, not the adults.

It was great to see Samar after a winter break and hopefully we'll see her again soon... maybe at the next Pitshanger Junior parkrun in April if not sooner.
