Yes, you read that right ... the sun put in an appearance at junior parkrun this week! Hooray!

83 juniors crossed the finish line, supported by lots of parents either running with them or cheering them on - what a fantastic atmosphere! We even welcomed an international visitor from Finland too!

Nigel and Mark were both marshals on the finishing straight, cheering the juniors on to the end, while Maurice and Claire were marshals around the course with the juniors passing them twice on their 2km run, walk or skip, and Karen was waiting for them at the finish line as a timekeeper. junior parkrun is such a lovely event for all the family, and just as rewarding for the volunteers too. Well done everyone!

The kids always amaze me , all different abilities coming together to have fun. It really is a joy to volunteer here and the fact I meet up with other volunteers who have become friends is the icing on the cake.
