We had our inaugural SeafordbeachParkrun this morning. It's an out and back along the sea front - very flat. It was windy, but the runners all appeared to enjoy it, a few PBs I would imagine, and a few first timers too. As a volunteer it was ffffreezing, but exciting to see it get under way 🌻. A great occasion πŸ™‚

Well done on volunteering for the 1st Seaford Beach parkrun Gran4z. Numbers are so high at parkruns around the country that new ones are bejng formed all the time. Hope you’ve warmed up now.

It was fun, and very special as it’s my home ParkRun. Exciting 🌻. I love volunteering, makes a change from running, and it’s a great opportunity getting to meet the runners - happy running πŸ™‚

Well done Gran4z, sounds like it was a great event. I agree volunteering is brilliant, hoping to feel good enough to re-start in a couple of weeks. :)
