Sunday 8th September
Report written by Sevan
There was a bumper turnout at Acton Junior parkrun this morning. With children back at school, there were 74 finishers, around double the summer holiday average. There was a real back to school feel at the warm up too, with an excited buzz and chatter from the participants, making it hard for Joanna, the run director to be heard.
Once the announcements were complete and the runners were led through a brilliant warm up session, they set off up the hill with Steph and Harvey tail walking at the back of the field.
Michelle as a timekeeper joined Kash and Sevan, who were barcode scanning, in the funnel. As well as double the number of participants, there was double trouble around in the finish area too. After the overnight rain, there were a couple of slips and a fall as speedy children slowed down to walking pace. A naughty pair also collected their token, then turned around to walk the wrong way up the funnel!
Thankfully, there weren't any injuries to deal with and everyone went home happy 🙂
