On a beautiful Saturday morning with no (purple) rain, nine goodgymers joined up to run and volunteer (Liam) at Princes parkrun and eat breakfast too!
Little did we know that an amazing person (well Prince) running many parkruns listed on his guitar, was running to raise money for prostate cancer even after a heart operation himself!
Needless to say with his ghetto blaster of Prince tunes, it infected our run with princess like ear-worms...
"We never wanted to be just your weekend runner,
We only wanted to be some kind of parkrun friend,
Hey baby, I could never steal you from another breakfast,
It's such a shame our friendship never has to end
Purple run, Purple run, Purple run, I only want to see you underneath the purple runs!"
Hoping without my bad singing in mind, it could inspire you to join us for our friendly monthly Saturday sticker parkrun.
This was not the only inspirational runner in parkrun but our very own Amina ( aka Supergran: She'll do the things that you never saw your granny do, There's nothing that she cannae do!) charging up hills in super speed with her granddaughter in her pram who was singing away with her rattle watching the crowds of runners go by. Definitely enjoying an easier way to complete parkrun , people watching!
Then we joined our chief Symbol giver formally known as Star sticker guardian ( Steph) at Coffee Lodge for a marvellous breakfast accompanied by some new lovely thought provoking words in frames which reminded us of good gym:
"A gift so rare and beautiful, kindness is a principle so unique and powerful who ever does it is truly wonderful"
(aka our Prince of princes park and all you goodgymers)
"You don’t have to see the whole staircase just take the first step"
(aka Amina just going with her pram and anyone inspired to join us)
Definitely drop mic, thats it, thanks for listening!
