Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Report written by Sarah
Four enthusiastic GoodGym members from GoodGym Leicester joined Sarah to distribute new leaflets to parkrunners, and what a fantastic day it was! Including our newest GoodGym Leicester member Rebecca recruited by the amazing taskforce member Nick, great to meet Rebecca and weldone getting involved.
We kicked things off with the scenic Markeaton parkrun—an exhilarating first experience for all the GoodGymmers. The course was a delightful mix of mostly tarmac paths and a gentle slope, leading us through a lovely woodland area before opening up for another lap. Sarah finished as the first lady, racing ahead to ensure the leaflets reached the runners quickly.
We were met with an enthusiastic response from a diverse group of runners, including members from various running clubs. A gentleman from Derwent Runners even offered to help spread the word within his club!
The Markeaton parkrun volunteers were also incredibly supportive, agreeing to include our next session in their run report.
These are positive strides toward welcoming new GoodGymmer's in Derby! Weldone GoodGym Leicester supporting the event!
