My warm up consisted of jogging 2 k to the park run, were I was welcomed by Wayne, Nadia and Andy We made our way to Saint Johns and were greeted by Kirsty Julie and the organisers of the Laurel removal. We began to clear huge laurels that had previously been chopped down and neatly stacked. I found this educational and was told that smaller fragments supports growth of bacteria and fungi. From the laurels there can also be the smell of almonds in the air. Coffee and biscuits offered which were warmly welcomed. The weather held out which kept us going and we were grateful to the WeAct Woking team for keeping us in check. Job done 👍 We certainly did not rest on our Laurels! 🍃

Woking Junior Park 🏃‍♂️

On a bitterly cold morning 4 GG members got up early this Sunday to help out at junior park run 😀

Wayne got to the park first and after saying hello to everyone was designated spot number 2, which he had to make safe by putting cones around the frozen ice puddles making sure the young runners were safe while going round the bend 💨. Wayne was a liitle sore after doing his early morning 12k run yesterday 😤.

Adam arrived shortly after with two cups of coffee 🤔 Adam was also sore with tight hamstrings after his long run with James yesterday, Adam was saying how much relaxing in the Sauna helped 🥵

We were getting worried about Nadia as she is always very punctual but with a few minutes to go there she was with her friend Andy, Scrapping the windscreen this morning took a little longer than expected 🤣 . Nadia did homewood park run yesterday and by the sound of it it was a tough muddy run 🏃🏼‍♀️.

So this mornings park run had 74 young runners who took on the 2k course. The fastest time was a brilliant 08:44 and there were also 21 PB's great running by everyone 😀

Hope you all have a great rest of the weekend.
