The Run Director was so happy to see the four GoodGym volunteers who sprinted to the rescue at Peckham Rye junior parkrun on 2 August 2026, keeping the event running smoothly through the summer slump and proving that even when the season gets hot, the volunteering spirit never breaks a sweat, a reminder that showing up early is the best way to start the day on the right foot and outrun the duvet

With England’s battle against France still sparking excitement, the young runners at Peckham Junior parkrun were raring to go on a sun-soaked morning. Three GoodGymers joined the core team to help the event score another cracking success, bringing plenty of energy, encouragement and community spirit. The juniors flew around the course with football-inspired flair, proving that when pace meets play, everyone’s a winner. There were no offsides, plenty of fast breaks, and one clear goal throughout the morning, cross the finish line smiling!

On Sunday 28th June, five enthusiastic GoodGym volunteers helped Peckham Rye Junior parkrun run smoothly as tailwalkers, marshals, and finish line s/heroes. Another run-derful morning of community spirit. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Three Goodgym volunteers hit the ground running at Peckham Rye junior parkrun, one marshalling the course,one handing out finish tokens at pace, and one tailwalking to keep everyone on track. It was a hot start, but the children didn't sweat it, they kept cool, running strong, and racing to the finish line like the pros. Absolutely run-derdul effort all round.

A very busy morning at Peckham today - 177 finishers. GG volunteers were pleased to help out.
