You don’t really need to stand out in the cold - just put long pants on 😂

Still wondering if your child is suited for junior parkrun? Check out this amazing feedback from a happy mum.

Our parkrun can help in so many ways.. Not bad for a 2km event 😉

A lot of the time, this early morning start to the day, can be done within 30 or 40min.

It gets your kids up, motivated and active, all before 08:30ish on a Sunday morning. No better start 🤗

Will we see you this Sunday?

The mornings are getting darker, and a little bit colder.. but this is where we make tough kids.

See you at 7:45 for first timers welcome, event brief and warm up 🫶🏼

Just a reminder to the adults,
~ No dogs are allowed on the course during parkrun 🐶 they need to stick to the start / finish area.
~ Parents who are walking while the kids are running need to be single file and not blocking the path.

We just need 1 more marshal pleaseeeeeeeee

Want to be as amazing as Carly?
Carly hit her 300th volunteer milestone last Sunday at our little parkrun. 👏🏼

For this Sunday, we need some more marshals.

If you’re happy to help, and have a valid Victorian working with children check, we’d love to have you!

🌟 Aintree Reserve junior parkrun #29 🌟

What a fantastic Sunday morning at Aintree Reserve junior parkrun with 27 finishers to the course today, with plenty of smiles along the way.

One of the best things about junior parkrun is seeing our kids challenge themselves, build confidence and enjoy being active outdoors. Every finisher is a winner.

Of course, none of this would be possible without our amazing team of volunteers who gave up their time to make today's event happen. Thank you for helping create a safe, welcoming and encouraging environment for our juniors each week. 👏

If you'd like to help keep Aintree Reserve junior parkrun thriving, we'd love to welcome more volunteers. No experience is necessary, and all roles are straightforward and fun.

Thank you to everyone who joined us this morning. We can't wait to see you all again next Sunday for more junior parkrun fun!

Lastly.. how amazing is this photo with our beautiful birthday girl, catching a rainbow 🌈 such good luck on your birthday, thank you for spending it with us 💕
