This morning I volunteered at Queen’s Park Junior parkrun as one of the timekeepers.

It was a busy event with lots of enthusiastic children taking part, which kept us on our toes from start to finish. Despite the high numbers, everything ran smoothly, with all the runners making their way around the course and plenty of smiles at the finish line.

As timekeeper, my job was simple but important: making sure every finisher’s time was recorded accurately. Thankfully there were no timing dramas, and the teamwork from all the volunteers helped ensure the event went without a hitch.

A great way to start the day and fantastic to see so many young runners enjoying themselves and getting active. Well done to everyone who took part, and thanks to the volunteer team for making another successful junior parkrun happen!
