4 cheerful GoodGymmers supported the Aylestone junior parkrun team this morning, watermead was sadly canceled.

We had Mel and Dave wearing their tails, Huw being the responsible time keeper and me barcode scanning.

A huge number, 59 youngsters braved the cold to run around Aylestone recreation park, so many flying around just like sonic all having fun and enjoying themselves which is what it is all about and why we like to support the volunteer team who are there every week. I was inspired by one lady who litterpicks before and after helping every week, her dog helps her sometimes.

Huw and myself were keen to pull in the marathon miles, Huw ran his long run before helping and I did a Vol sandwich by running there, helping then running back, just under 10 miles. Weldone all enjoy the rest of your Sunday.
