On the closing weekend of May, we welcomed 95 parkrunners who crossed the finish line at Bishan parkrun.
📢As Run Director Thea ushered in the morning with her lively briefing, she extended her warmest welcome to all our first-timers and visitors from other parkruns. On the note of safety, she also highlighted the importance of looking out for one another's wellbeing by keeping the park's AED locations in mind.

We closed out April in the best way possible—celebrating 8 memorable years in the community, exchanging smiles and bustling energy at Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park.

📣Following a concise run briefing by Run Director XinShuang, our Event Director Jessica shared some heart-warming milestones. Having been with Bishan parkrun since day one, Jessica has witnessed our community's growth firsthand.

She proudly presents TWO awards to our standout regulars: 🏆 Lilette: Recognized for her incredible dedication as the participant with the most parkruns attended at Bishan.
