Supporting the Junior Park Run by marshaling the course.
Meet by the cafe at Old Heath Rec by 8:40 to get high vis and to be allocated positions and then after a quick warm up the 4-14 year olds will set off on their 2 km run around the park at 9 am.
It's always a really satisfying task as the juniors are so appreciative of any encouragement we give them.
With just a short run it's often done by 9:20, so plenty of time for a drink in the new cafe.

Sweeping, mopping and maybe a bit of vaccuming and wiping for Colchester Food Bank.
Meet at the Food Bank (we gather by a bike rack between Currys and B&M bargins) at 7.
If anyone fancies a bit of a jog first, meet at the bike rack in Angora Business Park (near Angling Direct Fishing Tackle Shop) at 6:45 to run round. Let me know if you are planning to do this so that we don't leave anyone waiting by themselves!
