The excitement of the weekend is made even better knowing we’re helping at parkrun! Rain showers and a rainbow while we checked the course and put out all the signs and cones soon gave way to bright sunshine - perfect conditions for a parkrun. Between us today GoodGym Crewe did the following roles to make the magic happen at parkrun: - course check - course set up - testing the speaker (I think there was a little rendition there from Nigel!) - welcoming volunteers - run briefing and Director - timekeeping - course close-down - token sorting

Wow! Great work, greatly appreciated by 272 participants. An incredible 25 people did their very first parkrun today, and another 20 visited Crewe for the first time - I’m sure they appreciated the smooth operation and warm welcome! Well done everyone!
