We had a variety of jobs to cover at Parkrun this morning.

Jane and Laura left us early to head onto the course to take up marshalling points. Vicki and Sinéad had a lovely walk together and were the GG photography team. Yvonne was ensuring each runner got their correct time, and wondered if a cattle prob and electric finish funnel would make people behave! And Jen and Dave were up and at them early (much to the formers annoyance) to complete course setup before taking on the timers duties. Maybe the extra time in bed would've been beneficial as Jen counted in an extra 23 runners compared to Daves spot on timekeeping. But didn't beat the record of 30 additional runners that have been counted at a previous run!
