ED's Kate and Al headed up to SS Koopa parkrun today for a bit of touristing, and ran into a few familiar faces from North Lakes!
Where else did everyone go today?
Who ran/walked?
Who volunteered?
Who had a sleep in?
Back to usual programming next week, folks!

**REMINDER - NO EVENT TOMORROW**
Hi folks! Just a reminder that there is no parkrun at North Lakes tomorrow - as our start/finish area is being used for an event. We'll be back on deck again next week (12 September).
Take the opportunity to visit one of our neighbouring parkruns, or maybe even enjoy a sleep in.... whatever that is!

​It’s a super rewarding role and great fun to be a part of. If you're interested or just want to learn more about what's involved
Chat to Event Directors Alistair or Kate. Or chat with the Run Director of the day to find out more about the role.

Congratulations Kate Vietheer
100 Run Director stints! That’s 100 mornings of organising the chaos, wrangling runners and making parkrun happen — what a legend! 😂🩷 Congratulations Kate! We’re very lucky to have you!
