3 GoodGymmers turned out on a sunny but still slightly chilly morning to support Crewe parkrun. This week was a relaunch of "parkwalk" to highlight to people that parkrun is for all paces, and encouraging walking as a way being healthy. It also involved a fight with parkwalk bunting - that wont see the light of day again!

Karen, Nicola and Nigel carried out a wide range of roles today including course check, course set up, volunteer coordinator, run director, tailwalker, course close down, results processor and communications. A brilliant and much valued effort, all before 10am on a Saturday morning!

Another lovely evening spent with the loveliest people helping to make Macon Way a bit cleaner!

Karen, Rachel, Nigel, Maurice & Nicola spent the evening on Macon way collecting a whopping 5 full bags of rubbish.

It was a productive evening and we were encouraged to see that the nights are getting lighter too... makes all the difference!!!

Well done everyone! Another amazing job done!

Lots of Love Nicola xxx

Tonight we were back supporting the wonderful charity Motherwell.

Karen, Rachel, Maurice and Nicola started the evening with a walk down through the beautiful Joey the Swan. As usual, we put the world to rights as we ambled (well, possibly a bit faster than an amble!) our way through the footpaths on a lovely evening. The weather had a definite feel of spring to it which was so nice.

Back at Motherwell, we set to work filling up goodie bags for their International Women’s Day celebrations. It was a bit of a challenge to get a good system in place initially, but once we did, we got into the swing of it and soon had the bags filled.

The evening wasn’t without fun and laughter and it was wonderful to catch up with good friends as always

Well done everyone, you’re all amazing ❤

Have a great week. Lots of love NIcola xxx

Nicola and Mark flew the flag for GoodGym today at Crewe parkrun, with Nicola at the helm as the warm and welcoming Run Director after completing an early morning course check, and Mark being a super chatty barcode scanner.

Well done both of you - 331 people were able to take part today thanks to your tome and effort!

A great turnout at Crewe parkrun by the GoodGym gang!

Karen and Nicola teamed up as timekeepers, Karen also "meeted and greeted" the volunteers and made sure everyone know what to do; Nigel was on course set-up; Mark welcomed first timers with a description of the course and how parkrun works; Marjo was our star baker; and Marjo, Nigel, Emily, Maurice and Kat all did the "gym" bit of GoodGym by completing their favourite 5k of the week.

Well done everyone!

Kat was out setting the pace this week at parkrun, volunteering to be the 35 minute pacer in Crewe's Queens Park. Definitely the best of both worlds - running while volunteering! Well done Kat, pacing isn't an easy thing to do!

Kat wasn't alone in volunteering this week - Nicola took on two roles, meeting and greeting the volunteers, and meeting and greeting everyone visiting Crewe parkrun for the first time.

i can't think of two people more suited to their volunteer roles this week, well done Kat and Nicola!
