🍂 It was a stunning morning for FeldyRoo Fitness Trail parkrun Event #72. ☀️ Bright blue skies, golden autumn colours and 55 superstars out walking, jogging and running our beautiful course.

We welcomed visitors from far and wide today, including Edinburgh, Glasgow, the Borders, Aberdeenshire, Cumbernauld, Perth and Montrose. A big FeldyRoo welcome to you all! 👋

🌟 Special kudos to Tony! 🌟

Tony deserves a special mention for travelling 12 miles to join us today. That might not sound like much until you discover that he WALKED over from Loch Tummel! 🚶‍♂️ It took him 3.5 hours, much of it in pitch darkness. After parkrun, he was being picked up by his bus to continue his coach tour of Scotland. We hope you enjoyed the rest of your day, Tony, and didn’t spend the whole bus journey fast asleep! 😴😂

⚡ Speedy juniors! ⚡

We had some particularly speedy junior runners today, with runners in the 11–14 age category taking four of the top six places. Great running – well done to you all! 👏

🎉 Welcome to parkrun!

A big well done to Lloyd, Scott and Pia, who completed their very first parkrun today. We hope you enjoyed it and that we’ll see you again soon!

And a special shout-out to one of our regulars, Alfie, who celebrated his 25th parkrun today. Congratulations, Alfie! 🥳

💚 Our amazing volunteers

As always, a huge thank you to our 14 fabulous volunteers who made the magic happen today. parkrun simply wouldn’t be possible without you!

Many congratulations to the 50 runners and walkers at FeldyRoo this morning. The rain clouds stayed away for most of the time. but gosh that wind was cold!
If you’re running it’s not so bad but for our amazing team of volunteers it’s not quite so easy to stay warm. Our time keepers had the most challenging task as they need warm fingers on their super sensitive touch screens. A few extra clicks here and there can make all the difference to the number of runners and the times! Our new recruit on tokens alerted us to an issue as soon as he realised there was a mismatch with the numbers. We were on guard when it came to processing the results! This proved to be trickier than we thought but we finally got there … I think.

I am so, so grateful to our time keepers for their dedication to the role, the runners and their patience as we worked our way through all the possible scenarios to get you the right results and to Strava who helped us match runners names and times! No one received a P45 today ( sorry timekeepers, we need your expertise) and once again every day is a school day for the parkrun team!

If you are heading to Rannoch tomorrow- good luck to you and to the timekeepers!

The forecast for Saturday 10 October is looking a bit grey and damp. Fear not the warmth of the welcome at FeldyRoo parkrun will certainly make up for the overhead conditions!

Sunday 11 October is the Rannoch 1/2 marathon and marathon, so why not drop in to FeldyRoo as part of your training preparation! I can assure you there will fellow runners on the course either as volunteers or runners!!

Looking forward to seeing you at the FeldyRoo start line:
Saturday 10 October , 9.30am.

Many thanks to visitor Emma for her Run Report. Her whole family joined the volunteer team and I am grateful to everyone who helped today.

FeldyRoo Fitness Trail parkrun – Event 70

We're Emma, Adrian and Noah, visiting Scotland and staying with Emma's mum in Pitlochry. We had a fantastic time at the 70th event at FeldyRoo Fitness Trail. We're a mixed bunch: Emma is originally from Scotland, Adrian originally from New Zealand, and Noah was born in England but insists he's Australian (mostly to annoy his dad) and our four-year-old twins were born in Australia (they stayed at home with granny this time). We're hoping to move back to Australia next year, so a kangaroo mascot felt very fitting! Sadly, Feldy the kangaroo was elusive today. Hopefully we'll spot 🦘 next time 😂

This was Emma's 91st parkrun. She started in 2009, though three children and most recently living in Thailand where there is no parkrun has slowed progress towards the big numbers but she is hoping to reach the 100 very soon! Adrian completed his 87th and was pleased to finish 4th, his highest-ever finishing position. Noah decided to save his running legs for Junior parkrun tomorrow but earned his first volunteering credit helping with pre-event setup.

The flat three-lap course runs alongside the River Tay with beautiful countryside all around. There was a great mix of runners, with visitors from London, Australia and New Zealand, plus Dunfermline and Hackney Marshes.

Huge thanks to all the volunteers, especially Dominik, who gave a great first-timers' briefing and made everyone feel welcome. We also loved Maggie and Mabel, the waggy-tailed tailwalkers, and their assistants Sarah and Grant.

First ever parkruns: a very warm welcome to Paul J., David E., Louise H., Andrew H. and Shona H., who all completed their very first parkrun. We hope it's the first of many!

PBs: amazing work from Cormac M., who finished 5th overall with a PB in the 10-and-under category! Congratulations also to Andrew M. (1st overall, 19:39), Keith M., Brian R., Sarah B., Liana M., Louise C. and Estelle W. And a double celebration for Peter W., who ran a PB on his 50th parkrun!

A friendly event, a great volunteer team and a lovely start to a Saturday. Thank you to everyone who made it happen, and happy 22nd birthday to parkrun!

Here is a selection of photos with more to follow. And some great photos added from Helen on Bridge 1
