Awesome stuff to everyone that came along this morning, a massive 128 ran/walked/wheeled/jogged/skipped, plus our amazing volunteers and supporters!

It was great to spend our morning with you.

(For the lack of people that came up for milestones we sure had a few! ;-) )

Hands up if you spotted our awesome new finish token gadget? 🙋🏻‍♀️

We have been blessed to be gifted a super cool 3D printed token holder to make handing out finish tokens easier, and remove the stress of possibly dropping them! 😅

A huge thanks from Steve at Porirua parkrun who has been making these for parkrun locations all around NZ. Steve is a quiet hero funding these innovative much needed equipment from his own pocket. Thankyou for gifting this holder to us Southern Path parkrun ❤️

Check out Sophie using it below.

Congratulations to everyone who came along today.

The 48th person to cross the line was Antonia Euler which means we have had 2500 different people and 10000 finishes over all

Thankyou to every single one of you that has done a 5km with us on a Saturday morning

We can’t wait to see you all again soon
