Led by John Shirley

Jo, Louise and John gathered at Mile End to volunteer at the Junior ParkRun for the first time, assisting a happy, smiling group of youngsters

John marshalled at the bottom of the hill between the "out" lane and the return one. Louise brought up the rear as tail walker, looking after an ever-changing mix of slower participants. Jo took a while to find the start point, but she also played her part and I made a mental note to pinpoint the position more clearly next time.

Well done Jo, who reached 50 good deeds later in the day. Looking forward to seeing her in a black t-shirt
