Report written by Greenwich runner
On a grey but muggy Sunday morning, three GoodGym-ers headed down to support Lesnes Abbey Woods junior parkrun.
After the usual lively warm-up at 9am, and the presentation of this week's milestone wristbands, the junior runners were off! We helped the wonderful volunteer team with both marshalling, giving lots of cheering and encouragement to the participants, and tail walking, ensuring that everyone was accounted for.
There were plenty of smiles as everyone completed two kilometres in their own way - by running, walking, skipping, and jumping. A wonderful 57 juniors took part this week, including two coming along for the very first time and five setting new PBs!
It was a lovely morning all round, which was followed by a quick coffee at Chestnuts Cafe before we all headed onwards to a GoodGym social walk along the Ridgeway.
A free, fun, and friendly weekly 2k event for juniors (4 to 14 year olds) and entirely organised by volunteers.
