This is our regular volunteering session with Eltham junior parkrun. 🏃♀️🏃♂️
**Please request a role on the parkrun roster before you sign up for this task - scroll down 👇 to see the full instructions.**
Come and cheer on the young runners to get them fired up and charging around the 2km course. There are plenty of roles to choose from, including marshaling, barcode scanning, handing out finish tokens and tail walking. No prior experience needed and you don't need to be a runner. Just bring your best cheering, clapping and encouragement-giving skills!
You'll get a parkrun volunteer credit AND a GoodGym good deed after you've attended!
📍 **Meeting point**
Meet next to the café in Eltham Park South. The nearest postcode is SE9 1AN and the What3 Words location is: ///fell.stars.having. Your contact is the Run Director wearing a blue and white hi-vis jacket.
There may not be a GoodGym Bexley leader at this task, but the parkrun organisers will make you feel very welcome. Look out for other GoodGymers and perhaps one of you can write short report and add photos of you at the task via the 'Mission Accomplished' email that will land in your inbox later in the day.
