The first Saturday of the new year traditionally sees a jump in the number of people attending their local parkrun, and 4th January 2020 was no exception for Princes parkrun in Liverpool. Luckily, six GoodGymmers were on hand to help boost the volunteer numbers. Taking on a variety of roles including barcode scanners (Sam and Roz), unscannable barcode writer-downerer (Jo), funnel manager (Ruth) and tailwalkers (Mat and Pauline), we helped 521 runners, walkers and joggers complete the 5km course safely. This is actually the second-highest attendance ever at Princes! Special shout outs also to GoodGym Liverpool members Yan Ding who achieved a PB, and Kira Harrison on her first run at Princes.

(she/her) Once a proper runner, Jo is now mostly to be found plodding along at the back of the pack. Officially ace at recognising weeds.
