Sheffield GoodGym turned out en masse on a bright, crisp and just a little icy Saturday morning to Graves Parkrun. 18 Goodgymmers joined regulars, for a total of 48 volunteers - a new record at Graves!

This allowed extra marshals to help runners navigate the occasional patches of ice safely. There were also several pacers, ranging between 25 and 40 minutes. They all managed to keep to their times admirably well and helped lots of runners achieve PBs.

Keep an eye out for future pacing events and if you're interested in volunteering at Parkrun, you can opt in to receive emails from your Parkrun account.
