Have you ever wondered how a simple act of volunteering can transform a community and lift your spirits? In episode five of the Everyday Amazing Podcast, we sit down with the Nathan Rutherford. As a passionate Parkrun volunteer, Nathan's story is a testament to the joy and camaraderie that comes from helping others achieve their goals.

Reflecting on volunteering at over 100 Parkruns, Nathan takes us behind the scenes of Parkrun where every Saturday morning, people of all ages and abilities gather to run, walk, and jog in a celebration of health and community spirit. From the vital role of run directors ensuring everyone's safe and informed, to the marshals cheering on participants, to the [x] funnel managers, Parkrun exemplifies inclusivity. With over 1,950 events taking place every Saturday across the globe, including an additional 400+ Junior Parkruns, it is a worldwide phenomenon only made possible by 1000s of volunteers.

Nathan's infectious enthusiasm for volunteering and the collective effort to ensure no one finishes last—literally and metaphorically—will leave you feeling uplifted and perhaps motivated to don that volunteer vest yourself or sign up to your very first Parkrun event!
