It was a lovely sunny morning run to working park.

It was Working junior parkrun number 317 on a lovely Sunday sunny morning. As Adam arrived with James the course was all setup and waiting for the event to start. Having arrived, Adam and James registered with the run director to find out our positions. Adam was given volunteer position 11, at the top of the hill and James was by the first bridge. Katie and Phil had already arrived and we're ready for scanning and Karen was marshaling in the first half of the course. The run started off well with everyone having a quick start. It wasn't long before the first finishes had completed the first lap, starting the second strongly. The first runner to finish was Oliver coming in at 7:48 followed by Joshua only 2 seconds behind so that must have been a tight finish There were plenty of volunteers helping and the GoodGymers there to support, Adam, James, Katie, Phil and Karen had a great impact. It was a great junior parkrun. Time to sign up for the next task on Wednesday

Woking junior parkrun #315 – Sunday 3rd August 2025

What a glorious morning it was for Woking junior parkrun this Sunday! The sun was shining, the skies were clear, and the park was buzzing with energy and excitement as our young runners gathered for event number 315.

We had some fantastic performances on the course this week. Huge congratulations to Marilyn, our first female finisher, who crossed the line in an impressive 7:26, and to Oliver, the first male finisher, coming in close behind at 7:48. Brilliant running from both!

Of course, none of this would be possible without our amazing volunteers – all 33 of them this week! A special shout-out goes to the fantastic team from GoodGym, who came out in force to support the event.

James and Melanie kept spirits high on the course as marshals

Adam was on barcode scanning duties with a smile

Katie and Phil took charge of timekeeping, making sure every finish time was recorded perfectly

A big thank you to all our volunteers – whether you're clapping, cheering, timing, scanning or tail walking, you make this event the highlight of the week for so many young runners.

See you next Sunday for more fun, fitness and community
