Throughout lockdown the running community of Swindon run a 5k route of our own choosing at our own time between 18:00 Friday to 18:00 Sunday. We record our efforts and submit them for entry onto the leader board. It's like a real Park Run but different πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ.

13 runners signed up for pacer, tail walking and marshalling duties for the GoodGym takeover of this weekends VPR. Week 58 no less, and we continue to support each other and the Swindon Community runners.

As always I'd like to thank GoodGym Swindon volunteers in supporting me as RD it's never possible without you guys.

Special thanks go to Stuart Kingsley who paced both 22 and 25 minutes, there's just no stopping him πŸ˜‰ and congratulations to Hannah Garraway who took on the 40 minute pacer along with new entry baby Rueben πŸ‘Ά and just happened to ring the PB bell πŸ””. Brilliant work guys.

As far as I’m told there β€˜should’ be just one more GoodGym takeover if all goes to plan and we have other GoodGym RDs lined up to lead so on that note it's adios from me as RDπŸ‘‹
