It felt very autumnal at this morning's parkrun and we enjoyed a lap of the course through the woods and crunching leaves on the way to our marshalling points.

Marshalling was a perfect first volunteer role for Daiana who is a pro at motivating runners having supported a number of races 📣

We kept spirits high as runners and walkers completed the course, and then lifted our own spirits with delicious cake and a chat when all the excitement was over. Exactly the kind of balance we love 🍰

Two GoodGymers top and tailed Milton Country parkrun, arriving early doors for set up and staying to cheer the tail walkers across the finish line before packing down.

It turns out there's more to setting up a parkrun than placing cones and signs as Caroline discovered. Armed with shears, she walked the route, trimming unruly branches and nettles and clearing the path of wayward apples. Now we know!

We enjoyed running parkrun this week as well, taking in the beautiful route through woodland, alongside the calming lakes. All in all, a cracking start to the weekend 🙌

A beautiful morning spent at Milton Country parkrun. I was number checking and I'm pleased to report that all tallied perfectly 😅

It's always fun to volunteer at the finish line, cheering people through 🙌 Well done to all the runners and walkers!
