A Numbers Game

Sunday 9th February

Written by Jen Stoneham

After a short-notice RD shift, Jen recruited Dave, Nia and Tracey answered her call to help with filling the roster. We also got to celebrate the first outing of Nia's black GG t-shirt - nice one, Nia!

Mini GGer Jack was planning to run, but after deciding he didn't really fancy it (we've all been there, Jack!) he and Laura got stuck into Token Sorting, which was a great help!

Whilst taking our GG photo at the end of the session, fellow Eastney Juniors RD Rob disclosed he's been signed up to GoodGym for years, but never made a session. So, he has now officially completed his first Good Deed - hopefully the first of many!

💨 A Blustery Birthday 🎉

Sunday 26th January

Written by Dave M

A blustery chilly morning saw us helping out at Eastney Junior parkrun today. And as an added bonus it was the events 10th birthday! 🎉🥳

John, Vicki & Lorna took up marshal points along the route to cheer on all the participants 👏

Jen and mini GG-er Alice led everyone in an Australia themed warm up. Adding to the days festivities in honour of Australia day 🇦🇺

We had Loisa as our Run Director for the day. 🎬

Jane carried the halfway turnaround cone ⚠️ to ensure everyone went the correct distance!

Judy was a mobile marshal. Adding to her kms and steps to check all the runners were ok 🚶‍♀️

And Dave donned the orange vest as tailwalker to make sure noone got left behind. However, after 2 people ended up dropping out at various stages he ended up more tailrunning to catch up!! 😳

Thanks again to everyone helping out at JPR this morning. It was lovely to see Lorna out for her first GG task of the year - she had so much fun we dragged her along to two more tasks!

Being Run Director when GoodGymers are about is just marvellous. Will be great to see you guys again next week!

A Sunday Centenary

Sunday 12th January

Written by Jen Stoneham

Our first visit to Eastney junior parkrun this year was a pretty special one - Mini GGer Alice reached her 100 run milestone, and received a special wristband. Well done, Alice!

John, Vicki and Dave cheered the runners from their marshal spots, whilst Aoife and our latest Mini GGer, Aida, patrolled the course. Lucy turned her hand to barcode scanning, and did a super job!

Well done everyone for your efforts on a chilly morning.

For added fun, please play Spot the Difference from our group photos this morning - there are five to find!

A Walk in the Park

Sunday 8th December 2024

Written by Jen Stoneham

Thank you to everyone who came down to help out a Juniors this morning, it is always lovely to have the GoodGymers join our ranks!

John, Aoife and our youngest recruit kept everyone in check as the Team Tailwalk - they had to get a bit of a step on as all the kids were in top form today!

Vicki kept everyone motivated at her marshal spot, whilst Dave was super-focused as one of our Timekeepers.

Great work, GG!

Sunday Role Shuffle

Sunday 10th November 2024

Written by Jen Stoneham

Thank you all for helping out at Eastney Junior parkrun this morning - especially those that got shuffled to new roles!

Lucy and Vicki did more of a tail-run than a tail-walk this morning - well done, guys!

Dave was on it with his time-keeping skills, whilst John and Nia kept everyone on track whilst out marshalling.

Great job, everyone!
