another record breaking morning at parkrun! 136 juniors, lots of grown ups and lots of volunteers! Karen and Nigel were volunteering this morning, with a bit of volunteer coordinating, marshaling (and cheering!), helping with finish tokens, and packing everything away. Such a lovely start to Sunday.

A lovely morning for a parkrun and a reminder about everything that is so good about parkrun. Karen was Run Director today, with added duties of xourse check, number checker, and results processor; Nigel was on course set up, timekeeper and close down, and Kat was on barcode scanning while her son did his first Duke of Edinburgh volunteering. Lots of juniors volunteered today, with parkrun a great easy way to get involved in volunteering.

We saw celebrations of amazing running and volunteering milestones today, and it was lovely to see Mark and Marjo back at parkrun. The parkrun community is so supportive and there's no doubt that many friendships have been made and physical and mental health benefits felt.
