On a beautiful sunny morning, 1 GoodGymmer popped over to Coventry parkrun at War Memorial Park to support their local parkrun and run 5km.

This morning Vic’s role was the First Timer’s Welcome and after a little bit of training from the Run Director, she was ready to go! Vic’s role was to provide essential information to people completely new to parkrun and those visiting the course from across the country (ranging from Portsmouth to Swansea to Sheffield).

Vic was then able to join the other 477 parkrunners for a very enjoyable 5km parkrun in the sunshine! It was great to combine being able to give back to the local parkrun as well as enjoy a run this morning.

Well done Vic - I've never thought to sign up for the first timer's welcome as assumed it needed to be one of the core team. Great you had some training though and well done for doing it :-)
