Fun in the sun

Happy 15th birthday junior parkrun!

We were at the weekly run at Lesnes Abbey where 36 young runners and walkers completed the three lap course in the morning sunshine.

There were high fives around the route and sweet treats at the end.

There are lots of different roles on offer at junior parkrun and it's a great way to start a Sunday. Especially with a nice hot drink from the Chestnuts kiosk afterwards.

Come and join the fun soon.

Parkrun fun

Brrr, it was chilly but still lots of fun marshaling and barcode scanning at Lesnes Abbey Woods junior parkrun this morning.

The frosty park looked stunning in the frost as we cheered 32 young runners around the three lap course.

Always nice to have a warming coffee at the Chestnuts kiosk afterwards.

This is a weekly task for us, so why not sign up for a future session. It's a definite feel-good start to a Sunday.

Junior Parkrun Fun

Sunday 26th January

Written by Lisa

Karen and I went on our second outing to Lesnes Abbey junior parkrun to support the young runners complete their Sunday run.

Karen was funnel manager and I was the final marshall at the home stretch of the 3 lap undulating course around the Abbey ruins and grounds.

39 young athletes took to the course with 3 hitting a PB, one completing their 160th parkrun and one making it to 203! What a great way for young people to keep fit and make friends.

We also met a lovely lively group of parents and carers and an enthusiastic band of fellow volunteers.

A feel good way to spend a Sunday morning. Positive vibes all round.

🎵 Timing in the rain, just timing in the rain🎵

Sunday 5th January

Written by Graham Lee

Seven GoodGymers joined the team of volunteers at Lessness Abbey Woods junior parkrun on a damp and breezy Sunday morning.

Our newest member, Corletta, certainly picked a good day for her first task! While Corletta volunteered, two of her children did their first ever junior parkrun, and the rest of the family cheered them on. Well done all round!

Run Director Keeley also notched up her first GoodGym good deed. The rest of us performed timekeeping, barcode scanning, finish tokens and marshalling.

Despite the rain, 25 juniors ran and walked the 2km course which made for an enjoyable morning for the volunteers.

Event completed, we headed to the Chestnuts cafe for a well earned coffee.

We're listing this event as a weekly community mission now, so dive in and join the fun!

Parkrun fun

Sunday 1st December 2024

Written by Sarah W

We gave high fives galore when we joined the hi-viz marshals at Lesnes Abbey junior parkrun to cheer 37 young runners (and a few parents) around the three lap course.

It's hard to know who enjoyed it more, us or the parkrunners!

Same time, same place on the first Sunday of January. Come and join us!
