Maiya’s Moment: Run Directing at parkrun!
As soon as Maiya could start parkrun at four, she was all registered and running. Now 12, she’s stepped up to another big challenge — volunteering as Run Director!
8 years on and still going strong!
Felicity Jorgensen first took her daughters to parkrun in 2017 when Amelia was seven and Megan was five, and eight years on they are all still going strong!
Making the most out of parkrun
10-year-old Remy started parkrun when she was seven, and has now completed the course 34 times and volunteered 9 times. Remy and her mum Aranea explain the positive impact parkrun has had on them.
A regular part of our week
12-year-old Zoe has been a Run Director at parkrun four times. She says “I would encourage other girls to give parkrun a go. You will feel really good afterwards and, if you don’t want to run, you can volunteer. If you don’t know what to do there are friendly people to help. Come along and join in for a walk, run, or volunteer in the park and then enjoy socialising with a cuppa and food afterwards.”
parkrunning with my grandfather
Regan did her first parkrun in early 2016 at the age of seven because she wanted to spend more time with her grandfather and do something active together.
