❄️ Happy parkrun eve! ❄️

A huge thank you to everyone who has stepped up to volunteer this weekend. We really appreciate your support in helping make parkrun happen each week. πŸ’›

We're almost there with our roster and now just need one Tail Walker to complete the team. If you're available and would like to help out, please send us a message or let us know in the morning.

Otherwise, we're looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow! It looks like we're in for another cold, foggy parkrun morning, so be sure to dress warmly and bring those layers. πŸ§₯☁️

Whether you're running, walking, volunteering, or cheering others on, it's going to be a great way to start the weekend.

See you in the morning! πŸ‘ŸπŸ™Œ

πŸ’› National Volunteer Week πŸ’›

This week we're celebrating all of the incredible volunteers who make parkrun possible. From setting up the course and cheering people on, to timing, scanning, marshalling, tail walking, and everything in between β€” parkrun simply wouldn't happen without you.

Thank you for the time, energy, encouragement, and smiles you bring each week. You are appreciated more than you know. πŸ™Œ

As we celebrate our volunteers, we'd also love to welcome a few more people onto the roster. Our volunteer board is looking a little empty over the next few weeks, and for this Saturday we're still looking for:

⏱️ Timekeeper
🚢 Tail Walker
πŸ“ Marshal

If you're able to help out this weekend, please send us a message. Volunteering is a great way to be part of our parkrun community, and we'd love to have you on the team.

Here's to all our volunteers β€” past, present, and future. Thank you for helping make parkrun such a special place. πŸ’›πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

1 million parkrun events. Sounds crazy, right? 🀯

This weekend, we’ll hit that incredible milestone.

A million events delivered shows parkrun is more than a 5k or 2k. It’s shared mornings, encouragement, and a community that turns up week after week.

Thanks a million 🫢

It is almost Parkrun day, wrap up warm tomorrow morning it might be a bit on the cool side, but you will be warm after your Parkrun. Thank you to all our volunteers, all roles are filled (except photographer and run report), but plenty of gaps next Saturday, if you would like to put your name down.

This is somewhat belated... oops. Thanks Karen for the report.
