As Adam arrived at Woking junior parkrun I could already see everything was well organised and setup. Add I get closer the the bandstand, I could see Karen and Olalekan already there, with their highvis's on. James soon arrived armed with some coffees, which I was very thankful for.
It wasn't long before I registered and was given a different marshall position at finish funnel, ensuring adults wouldn't block up the funnel holding things up by going through the finish funnel.
The briefing started where run director Richard, gave the introductions for Woking Junior Parkrun number 350.
There where many children lined up for the start and when the whistle sounded, you could feel the ground shake as they stormed off the line. A good start was made as they all joined the path quickly.
The first runners passed me, all focused and I'm guessing looking for a quick time. Then the other runners came by a bit more gently and with big smiles on their faces.
And it turned out an incredible a total of 251 children finished and the first finisher to complete the run, in a fantastic time of 7:20
Well done to the GoodGymers that helped it with another smooth Junior Parkrun ๐.
