5 Goodgymers met at 0830 on Sunday morning for the weekly children's parkrun at Odd down cycle circuit.

Mary donned a marshal bib with a special furry attachment. Swinging behind her was a pretend animal tail for her special role as tail walker. Her role was to ensure she was at the back to ensure no child get left behind on the course.

Helen started the app on her mobile ready to time the children. Whilst Jer, Richard and Meyrick went out onto the course to marshal the route. They directed and cheered on the little ones around the course.

54 children took part in the parkrun, all ages between 4 and 14.

By 0930 we were finished! There were so many happy smiling faces after the run, both with the team and the children. There's nothing quite like a bit of fun early on a Sunday morning to help you to feel great about the day ahead
