It was a lovely sunny morning run to working park.

It was Working junior parkrun number 317 on a lovely Sunday sunny morning. As Adam arrived with James the course was all setup and waiting for the event to start. Having arrived, Adam and James registered with the run director to find out our positions. Adam was given volunteer position 11, at the top of the hill and James was by the first bridge. Katie and Phil had already arrived and we're ready for scanning and Karen was marshaling in the first half of the course. The run started off well with everyone having a quick start. It wasn't long before the first finishes had completed the first lap, starting the second strongly. The first runner to finish was Oliver coming in at 7:48 followed by Joshua only 2 seconds behind so that must have been a tight finish There were plenty of volunteers helping and the GoodGymers there to support, Adam, James, Katie, Phil and Karen had a great impact. It was a great junior parkrun. Time to sign up for the next task on Wednesday

What a fantastic turn out for the mission at Woking Foodbank as 13 GoodGymers turned up to do a deep clean. The Foodbank is one of our regular and most popular missions where we usually clean the floors and wipe the surfaces. But Kirsty had the great idea to do a deep clean of all the shelves and fridge etc. Because there were so many of us it didn't take too long and we ended the evening with the traditional photo on the staircase. A massive cheer to Rob and Stephanie for their second mission with Woking GoodGym and to Julie for reaching 50 good deeds. We can't wait to see you in the black t-shirt Julie. Also a massive well done to Luan who ran non-stop from the Foodbank back to the meeting point at the leisure centre after a break in running. You are officially a runner now Luan.

Woking Junior Park Run

On this beautiful morning 3 woking GG volunteers Wayne, Kirsty, & Karen carried out marshal duties 🏃‍♀️.

It was great to see Karen without her boot on, and is slowly getting back to full mobility 😄.

It was great to catch up with Kirsty who is back out and running again and enjoying it 👏🏻.

This morning the sun was out and so were 139 young runners who ran the 2k course. The fastest time was an amazing 07:29 and there were also 34 PB's fantastic running by everyone 👏🏻

Next task on the 13th Aug is the the foodbank in town for a focused clean....🧹

Woking Wonders: Junior Parkrunners Dash into Sunday with Smiles and Speed!

This morning, Woking’s junior parkrun course was buzzing with energy as 175 enthusiastic young runners tackled the two-lap, 2km route with great spirit and determination. The first finisher zipped across the line with an impressive time of 7 minutes and 38 seconds, setting the pace for a brilliant event full of effort, fun, and community cheer.

Helping make the event a smooth success were four fantastic volunteers from Woking GoodGym: Karen, Kirsty, James, and Wayne, who took on the role of marshals with gusto, guiding runners around the course and cheering them on with trademark enthusiasm.

A big thank you to all the runners, families, and volunteers who made this morning’s run such a happy event. Whether it was their first time or their fiftieth, every step counted and every smile mattered.

Congratulations to Wayne for achieving his 250th good deed with Woking Goodgym!

See you next week for more junior parkrun magic!
