Another busy morning at Crewe parkrun, with 6 GoodGymmers being part of the amazing team that made it happen!

It was a special day today as one of our GoodGym stalwarts was celebrating his 250th parkrun - simply amazing Maurice! Of course we had to celebrate with cake - and very yummy cake it was. We also had a volunteer takeover by Nantwich Running Club - a huge thank you to Mark for all the work that went into organising this over the last few weeks.

So what did GoodGym do today? Well lots actually! Between Karen, Emily, Kat, Mark, Nigel and Maurice, we carried out the following tasks: Run Director, pre-event set up, volunteer coordinator, first timers welcome, tailwalker, results processor, photographer, course close down and token sorting!

Well done and thank you everyone!

Another lovely uplifting morning at junior parkrun! The skies might have been grey but nothing could bring down our mood as we enabled 78 juniors to run, jog, skip and walk the 2km route.

We carried out a whole range of roles today - Mark on event set up, course check, chief sweeper, superb warm up leader with one of our juniors as his assistant, handing out finish tokens, and event close down. Claire as tailwalker, kept company by one of our chatty juniors! Marjo as a marshal giving out high-5s. Nigel on course set up, course check supervising Mark on his sweeping duties, marshal and event close down. Karen as Run Director, volunteer coordinator, number checker and results processor. All in the space of an hour! Great job everyone!

Claire, Maurice and myself braved the elements and supported Queens Park 165th Junior Parkrun. All three marshalled but helped out as required including answering questions from first timers. 91 brave junior runners turned up and were brilliant with lots of energy despite the weather, it was a pleasure cheering them on and the tea in the cafe after was very well received.

Thanks Mark for taking the time to write the report of what you got upto on Sunday. Well done to all of you for braving the rain! You're absolute stars!! ❤

I think its fair to say that we made an impact at Crewe Parkrun today!! Between the 5 of us: Karen, Kat, Marjo, Nigel & Mark we managed to cover 11 different roles!! We all take great pride in helping out at our weekly parkruns, especially in our lovely Queens Park and today was no exception - the sun was shining and it was a wonderful morning to be out and enjoying being with other parkrunners.

Well done everyone ❤
