Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Report written by Sevan
This morning's Pitshanger Junior parkrun had a glut of volunteers. In fact the run director, Karen, was heard to say:
"We have so many volunteers today that we have a page 2!"
As there were so many helpers, the 3 GoodGymers all ended up at the same marshal post. Each took different routes to get there. One was signed up as a marshal on the roster, one hadn't signed up and the other one was running late and arrived after the runners had set off. They grouped together to give the children and parents and extra loud cheer at the first/last marshal point on the course.
86 children in all finished the course and there were almost as many adults running the 2km too. Impressively, one child counted 25 high fives on their way round from 8 official marshal points.
After a quick refuel, Kash and Sevan headed onto the day's next task woodchipping a new path at Pear Tree Park.
