The positive energy was flowing long before we started today! Maybe it was the perfect fall running weather, but there was definitely a special buzz in the air. 🍁🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

A big Lukens welcome to first-time parkrunners Eric and Jason. Hope you had a fantastic first parkrun and we'll see you back again soon! 👏

We also loved hosting tourists Jonathan from Ontario 🇨🇦 and George & Timi from New Jersey. Thanks for making Lukens part of your parkrun adventure! 🌎

Congratulations to our PB stars: 🎉 Vamsi, Adam, Timi, Eunice, Tom, Chris, Bill, Victoria, and Grace. Amazing running! 🔥

And finally, a huge thank you to our incredible Hi-Vis Heroes 🦺💛. Your enthusiasm, encouragement, and dedication are what make Lukens parkrun such a special community week after week.

See you next Saturday! 💙

Morning everyone! Our Ailsa has already got her parkrun done at Wanneroo parkrun in Perth Australia. She says to say hello to everyone at Lukens and she's looking forward to telling us all about her globetrotting parkrun adventures when she comes home in November.
