A bunch of GG Yorkies braved the very cold winds 💨 down at the Knavesmire this morning. At least the track was dry and the ground fairly firm today.

We covered various roles from pacing, timekeeping and scanning to funnel managing and marshalling - even Fergs the dog 🐶 helped and we were all very jealous of Amy's big coat!

Just over 700 people took part today and it wouldn't have been possible without our valiant volunteers. If anyone would like to volunteer in future weeks then email York parkrun at york@parkrun.com. The future roster can be seen here https://www.parkrun.org.uk/york/futureroster/

It was a chilly but dry morning for parkrun and 7 of us volunteered to support the over 600 runners on the Knavesmire. We took on a variety of roles including timekeeping, finish tokens, barcode scanning, funnel managing. Apart from Laura losing her voice in the middle of the first timer briefing it all went smoothly.

Another great bunch of GG Yorkies (plus 2 from GG Portsmouth) assembled at a cold and icy (but sunny) Knavesmire to help out one of our local parkruns in a variety of roles.

Another hardy bunch of GG Yorkies braved sub-zero temperatures to help out once again at the York Knavesmire parkrun. The mist made it very atmospheric down at the 'mire and thankfully there was no wind so, with our many layers of clothing it didn't feel as cold as it could have.

Over 600 runners and walkers took part and they were all finished by around 10am. Some of the goodest GG-ers were off to do further good deeds and some off us went to the Knavesmire pub for breakfast and to get warmed up.

Eleven wonderful GG Yorkies got up bright and early to help the York Knavesmire parkrun once again. A variety of roles were filled, from marshaling to pacing and everything in between.

Several were off to their next mission straight after (some doing a whopping 4 good deeds today 💪 ) but some of us just went to the pub for breakfast 🍳

A hardy bunch of GG Yorkies met once again to help York parkrun run safely and smoothly down at the Knavesmire. Various roles were filled, but unfortunately all of us got a soaking as the rain came down and the wind blew. That's my excuse for not getting a photo - so here's one from last week!

Thanks again to everyone who helped today - see you again next week?
