Three GoodGymmers rolled up to Crewe parkrun for their parkrun fix of volunteering (and a 5k run for Emily). Karen and Nigel were timekeepers, as well as volunteer coordinator for Karen, and post event close down for both. Emily got hands down her favourite role - sorting the 362 finish tokens back into order ready for next week's parkrun over a coffee and chat with friends. its a tough job but someone's got to do it!

a lovely morning for a bit of parkrun volunteering! Nicola and Karen did the course check and course set up before Karen did the event briefing before the runners and walkers set off for their 5k around the park. Nicola did a fabulous job of number checker / funnel manager, making the result processing a doddle for Karen. While Karen and Nicola were packing everything away ready for next week's parkrun, Emily and Maurice were doing their favourite job of sorting the tokens back into order and replacing missing tokens, all ready to go again next week. 362 people took part - what a fabulous thing to be part of!

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.

Nicola, Nigel and Karen joined the Crewe parkrun team today as volunteer coordinator and timekeepers. Such a lovely way to start the weekend! Our roles in the parkrun team meant that 391 people were physically active and were part of a lovely supportive community, all superbly led by the new Run Director on the team, Charlie.

Lots of roles carried out by the GoodGym team at parkrun this week! 389 prople took part, with over 50 walking as part of parkrun's "Let's Walk" campaign.

Nicola was the ever warm and welcoming Volunteer Coordinator; Karen was run director and did course check, set up and close down, results processor and communications; Nigel did course set up and close down as well was timekeeping; and Emily and Kat did the really satisfying job of sorting the tokens ready for next week - although sorting them into reverse order blew Kat's mind!

Great job everyone!

We were joined by a very special guest as part of the GoodGym / parkrun team this week - Stanley the very cute daschund! Stanley had just returned from his holiday in Norfolk where he'd been enjoying walks on the beach, seeing the seals, long walks, coffees and ice cream - but it was just as lovely for him to be in our favourite park!

Stanley joined Nicola (run director, event set up, course check, and results processor), Karen (timekeeper, volunteer coordinator and communications person), Mark (parkwalker), and Nigel (tailwalker and event close down) . 359 people walked and ran at parkrun this week, made possible by the amazing team of volunteers.
