Report written by Anji Andrews (she/her)
The sun came out and so did the dogs at Saltwell junior parkrun in Gateshead this morning. We were back in what's becoming a regular slot for us as a mini GG takeover.
Due to a horrible fire that had taken place in the park last week, the start line was in a different place today but thankfully the children (including one randomly dressed in a dinosaur suit!) didn't seem to notice or mind! We filled six roles between five people: Aimee and Eleanor were marshalling, Paul and I were timekeeping while Charlotte did both the First Timer's Briefing and finish tokens!
There was an excellent collection of friendly dogs at the finish area today and I had to be very careful to not get distracted. Job done and I headed off on a cycle back home with careful instructions from Charlotte and Eleanor. I had blue skies all the way, another perfect parkrun sort of Sunday.

It will make the pathways much safer for our residents to walk between their accommodation and the main block which houses the laundry, lounge and library.
