🌧️ 16 dedicated GoodGymmers, two lovely dogs and a baby leapt (ish) out of bed bright and early on a sunny* (🀣) Saturday morning for a lovely jog around the Knavesmire.

πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈFor some it was our first Knavesmire parkrun, for others it was the first for a while. And yet others are regulars.

🌬️ It may have drizzled and blown an (almost) gale but we got round and Paul Kelly even got a PB πŸ’ͺ (I hear that Ed's taking some credit for that but I've also heard that it was really Fergy pacing everyone 🐩)

πŸ“Έ After gathering for a group photo, we headed to The Knavesmire pub for a classic breakfast 🍳 We just about managed to digest it before some of us jogged/cycled in the (somewhat heavier) rain to our next venue - Mayfields Community Trust 🌱

πŸ™Œ Brilliant to see so many people out despite the weather and do let me know if you've got any suggestions/requests for our future parkrun ventures as it would be great to make it a regular thing πŸ‘Œ

β˜” *NB It rained. But not as much as the community mission later so that's probably a win πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

PS Apologies for the slightly niche Poirot reference in the pun. I may have spent the first lockdown binge-watching Poirot 😎
