Junior parkrun was an incredibly blustery affair this morning, but fortunately after last night's gale force winds the course was all clear. The same can't be said for the roadworks out on Bransbury Road - the signage and cones were all over the place!

Lucy, Jane, Angela, John and Vicki provided great support and high-fives along the route, whilst Aoife and Dave made sure the funnel ran smoothly by taking on Timekeeping and Finish Token duties. Meanwhile, after leading a bizarre insect themed warm-up, I played the role of Pied Piper and had a swarm of children chasing me round the course!

Area Activator for GoodGym Portsmouth. I swear like a sailor, burp like a foghorn. Human A - Z of Portsmouth. Ultimately charming.
