Not quite Park Run in the sun but marshalling done

Saturday 15th July 2023

Written by Natalie (she/her )

4 Goodgymers made their way to Ipswich Park Run this morning to cheer on all the runners.

Scattered across the route, Paul, Karl and Natalie whooped, cheered and clapped as the participants made their way around the 5km. Strategically placed at the top of one of the inclines early on, Karl and Natalie were keen to encourage 'from the top'. Great to see Nicola too, flying the flag for GoodGym as an all-important tail walker!

A good 200 people made their way around the course, no doubt grateful that yesterday's biblical ran didn't return. Paul had felt the full force of it yesterday when he had marshalled for another running event in Ipswich - what a hero!

Give a GoodGymer a lanyard and hi-vis.... High spirits and high-fives as 200 runners take on Chantry Park

Saturday 11th March 2023

Written by Natalie (she/her )

Chantry Park was flooded with runners on Saturday who refused to let the cold weather and first put them off their Park. GoodGymer Natalie was there marshalling, covering three points on the 5km route. Two were at the top of some tough hills so extra claps and supporting shouts were given.

Walkers, runners, families, dogs... all completed the course in fine form. A wonderful group of dedicated volunteers give their time each week to take this event happen so it was a pleasure to be a part of it.

Look out for a GoodGym takeover of Ipswich Park Run coming soon.
