parkrun volunteers- don’t you just love them?
A few months ago at Hilly Fields parkrun I first heard the term ‘voluncheers’. Not sure who first used it but it could well have been Em M.(@runningfasterEm). I remember Em cheering me up the hill at Hilly Fields on my first visit. ‘You can do it’.
Feeling like some gentle writing (it is raining hard as I write) I thought some pictures from Hilly Fields parkrun and Lullingstone parkrun would fit the bill.
Over the last few months I have been taking pictures, sometimes even when running at my 12.33 minute per mile pace.
So as a tribute to all the volunteers that keep parkrun going here are some of them –
Hilly Fields parkrun









Lullingstone parkrun

Elsie my big brother’s car
Was rescued by the AA a few days ago after a broken crankshaft made her expire on the A21. Thank you everybody for all the cards and letters. She is being repaired and will be soon out and about again. She doesn’t fancy the hills at HF and Lullingstone though but could be a cake transporter?

The future
it has only been going a few months but Hilly Fields junior parkrun is attracting over 100 kids every Sunday.
No pictures of HF junior parkrun as the kids come along so fast there is no time to film them Especially if you are trying to stop them cutting the corner.
