Halloween is always one of our favourite events at junior parkrun, and this year didn't disappoint! Claire, Karen, Emily and Maurice helped make the spookiness happen today, carrying out lots of roles - course check, set up, run director, tail walker, timekeeper, marshal, event close down and results processor! The costumes were great and the juniors had so much fun. 122 juniors took part, an amazing turn out for the start of half term.

Its always great to support our local parkrun, and even though we were small in numbers (one GoodGymer to be precise) we were still big in impact. Karen was Run Director today, and was in the park early to check the course, meet the volunteers for event set up, put cones out and set up the speaker before the event briefing started. Once the event was underway it was lovely to chat to volunteers and keep an eye on the finish funnel to help with processing the results later. 329 people were able to take part in this lovely community event.

A fab evening sowing wild flower seeds and and general weeding in an overgrown ally in Crewe.

Kat, Hazel, Maurice & Nicola did a grand job of tidying.

Rachel, Maurice & Nicola had a fabulous time tonight in the garden of local charity, Her Place (was Motherwel). We had fun planting bulbs in the raised bed, putting bedding plants into pots and having a bit of a general tidy up.

The title pun references a few issues we had with locking up the building after we finished! I think it must have taken us about 20 minutes before we could get the key to turn in the lock! Lol!

Well done everyone the flowers looked beautiful.

A lovely night with lovely people helping to make a local alley a little bit tidier. We planted some lovely wildflower seeds... we just hope that they take now!

Spotted some beautiful caterpillars as well you'd have loved it Phoenix!

Well done everyone. Another great job done!

103 juniors put on their pumps and sandals and walked, skipped, jogged and ran around the park this morning! all made possible by 24 wonderful volunteers, including 5 GoodGymmers. Tasks carried out by GoodGym members were volunteer coordinator, barcode scanning, photographer, marshals, and packing the kit away afterwards. A great job, made even better by seeing so many juniors keeping fit and having fun!
