🌳 A group of lovely GoodGymmers from York, Leeds and Huddersfield assembled at Chevin parkrun for a beautifully scenic parkrun on a pleasant morning. Steve provided some early morning giggles by arriving in odd shoes (hence the pun) 👟
🏔️ Everyone tackled the hill (twice) with great aplomb and did a sterling job on a muddy and bumpy course. The odd shoes didn't seem to hinder Steve as he snuck in just ahead of Egg 🤫
☕🍰Post-parkrun, we went for coffee and cake/breakfast and were lucky enough to have the top floor of the cafe to ourselves. After that, we wandered up to Surprise View. There was much discussion of whether the nature/extent of the surprise was enough to warrant the name. After some scrambling on the rocks, Egg led the group on a lovely return route via the woods 🌲
🙌 Thank you for a lovely morning everyone, let me know if you've got any suggestions for future parkrun tourism - Knaresborough, Temple Newsam and maybe even Whitby are currently on the cards 🏃♀️🏃

Hi Nicky. My name is Stephen and was the run director at CF pr this morning. I'll be writing our run report this week. Is there any chance you can give us permission to use your photos and text on our run report? I'd love to give you guys a shout out. Please email us on chevinforest@parkrun.com to let me know if this is okay or not, thank you.
Having volunteered myself elsewhere today through sheer ineptitude I applaud the use of 'aplomb' above! ^
Thank you Stephen, that would be brilliant. I've emailed you so do let me know if you need anything else.
And thank you Tom 🤣 Sorry you weren't able to join us but hope you had a good one today, wherever you were volunteering! Hopefully see you soon!
Nice report Nicky! Also shout out to Louise who is strictly GG Huddersfield 💪
Thanks Egg, I've given Huddersfield a mention and will try and find Louise!
