Saturday 14th March
Report written by Ben Foster
Great to meet Gill again from GoodGym Luton this morning and a big welcome to Aniedi for your first every GoodGym session AND first parkrun volunteering credit!! Clear, fresh, and crisp morning following a couple of wet evenings in Manchester.
Gill was our expert timekeeper this morning for Fletcher Moss parkrun event number 288. Almost in-sync with the finish tokens (pesky funnel duckers...), alternating hands in and out of gloves seemed to help a little bit on a chilly March morning. Aniedi was marshalling at the river bend (#2) cheering on participants going out and then returning for the final turn of the parkrun. Ben as RD was able to delegate the roles to a well-drilled 16 volunteers who enabled the event to go ahead without a hitch.
394 runners and walkers completed the 5 km with lots of puddles around the course keeping the people on their toes.

Well done Aniedi! If I had realised you were a GoodGymer when I saw you I would have said hello and got a photo. Hope you enjoy many more GoodGym tasks.
