With the start of the school holidays approaching, there is a heavier reliance from local familiies on foodbanks so this week's task was to help to top up our local food bank.

We ran a weighted uphill run, unloaded at the local foodbank station then a nice downhill jog back.

Another Tuesday and another chance to get fit and active in the local area. Another chance to catch up and blow away the cobwebs.

5km of trails and parks with a few road runs thrown into the mix and catching up on the recent community mission mural painting.

Laura and Ben both rolled up their sleeves on Saturday morning to help with the set up and then marshal or RD for Fletcher Moss parkrun event #214. Laura marshaled at "Cheat's corner" to direct runners to do two laps of the field loop before heading back to the finish.

369 runners and walkers completed the 5 km course with several participants from Littleborough runners and Alsager runners making up the numbers.

Thank you to all the volunteers this week! It makes the RD role so much more straightforward than it could be.

Helped with set up and volunteered as a marshal at the Old Bedians rugby club corner at Fletcher Moss parkrun event #213. 385 runners and walkers completed the 5 km course.

Juno was designated protector of cones to stop other dogs taking them. It worked a treat, she did a sterling job.

Well done to all the participants and looking forward to an RD stint next week.

Last night we embraced a steady 5km social run, blowing off steam with the added extra special guest.
