Getting there

For this session we're going to meet at the task, so you'll need to make your own way there. We encourage you to walk, run, or cycle to do so!

    About this session

    IMPORTANT - We will need your parkrun barcode before the sign-up date closes, please either pop it in the comments section or email it directly to michael@goodgym.org, or finally you can email Cardiff junior parkrun directly at cardiffjuniors@parkrun.com

    Volunteering at parkrun requires registering for a barcode beforehand, and important step not usually seen at a typical GoodGym mission, but essential for these ones.

    Sadly, no dogs are permitted at a Junior parkrun event - either for volunteers or participants.

    If you do not already have a parkrun barcode, you can sign up for one here.

    A free, fun, and friendly weekly 2k event for juniors (4 to 14 year olds).​

    First, and most importantly, we never ask anybody to do anything they're not comfortable with. If you don't want a particular task, please let us know and we will happily give you an alternative job. Nevertheless, none of our tasks are too stressful. You could be organising the finish funnel, operating the timer, or scanning barcodes using the simple Virtual Volunteer app. If you really want to do something in particular, please let us know and we'll see what we can do.

    Reminder - Register for a parkrun barcode, and unfortunately no dogs are allowed on the course, either for runners or volunteers.

    Make sure you've read our general guidelines for safety for taking part in a GoodGym session.

    This is a GoodGym community mission. When we're doing a community mission we make our own way to the task, so you can choose to walk, run, or cycle. Thinking of cycling - check out our FAQs
