28 hardy souls, turned out to brave the elements today and put on a terrific display of running resilience! Mas and the core team were joined by Simon a former regular and now parkrun ambassador to get everything set up and ready to go. After leading the warm up with a rendition of dingle dangle scarecrow the junior were eager for the off and away they went. The amazing marshals whooped and hollered encouragement as they ran into the wind with great determination. The marshals, timekeeper, token issuer and all the other tasks are what makes these events possible and are all volunteers, so it is a great opportunity for Good Gym to support a local event, in fact there are parkruns all over the UK - so lots of Good Gym mission possibilities.
Once the runners had completed their mission we completed ours and quickly packed away before everything was blown away.
Hurrah for parkrun and until next week....
