There were lots of new things going on at Acton Junior parkrun this morning. There was a new (to GoodGym) run director, a lot of first time runners and GoodGymers running the warm up with Maria leading it alongside Kash and Chris.

Around the course, Alan was marshalling and Steph wore the leopard tail and orange vest as the tail walker. Most other GoodGymers were in the funnel. Maria double-roled, also funnel managing, with Chris recording times and Kash and Sevan making up the barcode scanning team.

The real excitement was far from Steph, with the leading runner finishing in 7 minutes flat on the hilly course 😲. They were so far in front that there was a 95 second gap back to the first boy to finish. Some parents weren't as impressed with their children, leading to those adults making childish comments like:

"[She] didn't pull her trousers up in time at the start, so she deserves to finish 39th" - Childish parent

Chilly but sunny Sunday morning - early start for 3 Goodgymers who were ready to run from Ealing Broadway Station to Acton Park. After a small and chatty run in the sun they arrived in the Park to volunteer at Acton Junior Parkrun. Covered around 3.5km in roughly 19 minutes. The cold weather didnt stop them from getting out early for a run.
