Junior Parkrun at Leabridges celebrated today’s RD Suzi 250th volunteer credit. She was one of those who started this Junior Parkrun & is here every week either as RD or marshal along with her faithful family . Without people like Suzi these event wouldn’t take place, and like Goodgym, people wouldn’t be able to enjoy the great outdoors , helping both their mental health & physical well being. 11 young people enjoyed these benefits today

5am start to arrive for 6am registration for volunteering at the Boudecca Way Ultra Marathon 50km around our wonderful countryside. Sorting about the intensive heat we’ve had recently, all provision was made with extra water/spray stops. That seems very obscure considering the heavens opened from 6-8am and on arrival it was wet! It wasn’t cold though and for the next 6 hours the participants did endure a very humid run

Bad weather was forcasted for this morning but luckily rain didnt fall till most of the 212 had made it round

346 people out on a humid morning , running,jogging, walking Catton Parkrun. Lots of tourists and a few first timers, always good to see.

On another quaint evening at Marlpit Community Gardens, GoodGym lent a hand or few.

Stephen had the grand job or repositioning a mass pile of horse manure, which he made light work of!

The rest of us were raking up piles of the cut long grass.

Congratulations to Liz who was completing her 10th GoodGym deed.

To finish the evening, they allowed us to pick some berries for self consumption.

It was VERY warm even at 08.45 but still 11 juniors arrived for a Junior Parkrun. They were told to be extra careful participating in this heat. They did slowdown a little. I was lucky on marshal point 5 as I was under a shady tree, and the children enjoyed this shady part of the 2K course.
