If you’ve ever thought about doing the 5k parkrun before, you can benefit from listening to the first timers briefing that I had the pleasure of doing today at Catford parkrun. Here’s a taster.
It’s not a volunteering role I do often (as my mum tends to do it, though I’ve got 62 volunteer credits across other roles now) but it was great to welcome newcomers to Catford before taking part in the run myself (pleased to have got 19:28 seconds, my second best parkrun time), before finally finishing the day doing my usual scanning volunteering role at the end.
