START THE CAR!

We are excited to welcome you all to Thorndon juniors in the morning.

If you're a first timer please arrive by 7.45am so we can run you through it all.
We start our safety and important info at 7.55am and then promptly at 8am.

Please remember that Thorndon Park does not allow dogs so please keep your 4 legged friends at home for junior parkrun.

All are welcome to join us for a post-parkrun coffee at the Rezz.

Well done to the 23 brilliant juniors who walked, jogged, and ran the course at Thorndon junior parkrun this morning. There was a lot of energy and determination on the course today to start the Sunday right!

A special shoutout to the five of you joining us for the very first time and welcome to the parkrun family, we hope you had a blast and will be back next week! Even with the squishy course, we had one PB today, amazing effort! Lots of smiles on the course!

As always, junior parkrun couldn't happen without our volunteers. A massive thank you to all of you who cheered, timed, scanned, and kept everyone going the right way this morning.

Let's do it all again next weekend!
