With Waltham Forest regular Ercole (give him a cheer - he reached 50 tasks this week!) being one of the founding members of the junior parkrun in Jubilee Park it was only a matter of time before a Goodgym take-over!

So today a mixed bunch of Goodgym members passed up on the opportunity of a Sunday morning lie-in, but assembled in the sun in the park instead - from experienced Beth to Lauren on only her second GG adventure and Sally visiting from Camden. Run Director Ercole organised the troops and had everyone lined up for the warm-up when the clouds opened up. But althought a bit of rain made some adults regret forgetting a coat/leaving it in the car, it did nothing to stop the waiting bundles of energy also described as kids, they almost seemed spurred on to go even quicker, it was great to see all of them perk up spotting the finish and sprinting to get to the end!

Like with a pair of book-ends, a second rain shower rounded off the outdoor activities for today. A quick team picture before some had to shoot off - hope the weather held up for your mission, Sally! After putting away the bits & pieces part of the team visited an until now well-kept secret, Kukoolala Cafe, to dry out and enjoy some delicious pancakes - highly recommended!

On Wednesday it is back to the normal group-run - sign up here to join trainer Ant at Mirth, Marvel & Maud for the next adventure around Waltham Forest.
