⏱️Timekeeper
🏷️ Token person
🧍🏾‍♂️ Marshal
📱 Barcode scanners

Each role is easy enough to learn on the day. Come get some feel-good volunteering vibes!

Email, message or respond below with your name & parkrun ID if you’ll be one of our high-viz heroes this week.

Parkrun can’t happen without these roles filled.

⭐️ Finish Tokens… so satisfying to be handed! They feel like a trophy, a reward for your effort.🏃🏻‍♀️

❌ THEY ARE NOT YOURS TO KEEP! ❌

We need every single one back immediately after you’ve had your time scanned. If you don’t get your time scanned, we still need them. A token should never be token home! Your results are only accurate if we have all the tokens, so we need them all back!

❓ Where do you put them? In the small bucket on the ground near the scanner’s feet. Another option is to the scanner or a volunteer in high viz.

If you accidently pocket one, pleeeeeease bring it back! You’ll always be thanked 😊.

🏆 The satisfaction, the many health benefits, the record of your time, your own parkrun ID barcode, your selfies - they’re yours to keep forever.

Last week we had three numbers not returned. (94, 150, 258)The week before two went missing (64, 133). Please bring them back! If you have one from a past parkrun, we need it back.
