This morning Adam, Katie and Phil made their way to Woking Park to volunteer with Junior Park Run.

The sun was shining and this meant a great turn out of children and their parents who either ran with them or cheered them on around the course.

In total 183 children made it through the finish funnel, with the fastest runner completing the course in 7:41.

It was a great morning seeing so many children being active and enjoying themselves.

Junior Park Run 🌧

This morning Wayne got to the park early to help run directors Victoria & Rich set up the 2k course for the runners 🏃‍♂️ There were dark clouds hovering over the course but luckily we had no rain . Melanie also joined Wayne this morning to carry out marshal duties.

We were short of volunteers this morning but thankfully a few parents stepped in last minute to help out.

In total this morning there were 118 runners with the fastest time being a fantastic 07:42 😊. There also 31 PB's fantastic running by everyone.

Junior Park Run 🏃‍♂️

Woking Junior Park run was back this morning after a few weeks off. The park did have a few obstacles at the start but the runners navigated around them 😊.

Wayne, Karen, & Adam got to the park early to have a catch up. It was great hearing about Karen recent trip to Michu Picuhu sounded like a great trip. It was also good to catch up with Adam but not so good to hear about Adam injury which he picked up at the Richmond 1/2, and is now slowly changing his exercise routine to get himself back to his peak (Speedy Recovery Adam)

There was a great turn out this morning with 144 Runners taking part. The quickest time was an amazing 07:36 and there were also a fantastic 105 PB's Great running by everyone 🏃‍♂️.

James, Karen and Becky took a short pause from eating chocolate eggs to volunteer at Junior parkrun on a crisp easter morning.

With well over 100 juniors it was a busy parkrun. Must be the parents getting the kids out to burn some energy before a day of feasting on sugary treats.

James did a superb job as Run Director and did GoodGym proud, knowing most kids by first name, including lots of kids in the warm up crew and learning from the kids how to use the loud speaker.

Becky accurately did her job as time keeper, maybe for the first time ever, while Karen was a marshal on the course encouraging the kids and keeping them safe.

Certainly an eggcellent time had by all.

Woking Junior Park Run

The sun was out this morning ☀️ and so were Wayne, Katie, Luan, Melanie, & Alys. Wayne Dis his usual long run before the park run in preparation for some up coming races 🏃🏼‍♂️.

Katie arrived with Phil, Luan walked from Goldsworth Park and Melanie also walked to the Park. Alys arrived with her little nephew Issac who was staying over during the holidays and was looking forward to his first Woking Junior Park Run 😄.

Wayne, Melanie, & Luan were marshals out on the course cheering the runners around the 2k course. Katie had the important role of timekeeper today ⏱.

In total this morning there were 105 runners with the fastest time being an impressive 08:10, there were also 42 PB's Great running by everyone.

This Wednesday Anne has arranged a Plogging session hope to see you a few there. 🖐🏼

Yes, it is Sunday again and for GoodGym Woking members, it usually means volunteering for Woking junior parkrun. So, this morning found Adam, James and Anne meeting at the band stand in Woking park.

James was the run leader this week and he distributed the different positions to the volunteers as they arrived for their duties.

It felt as if there were more adults than children this time, but it might be because I was the tail walker and they were hiding the line of 102 children when I took my position at the start? Amongst them 14 children were new to the 2 kms loop of Woking junior parkrun and 28 obtained a PB.

The sunny weather must have, somehow, helped the positive feel floating around the whole event.

Happy running to you all.
