We had some fun this morning as part of the parkrun UK celebrations. Incredible stats!
"Since parkrun began on that autumn morning in October 2004, over 8.3 million people have taken part in parkrun, and more than one million different people have volunteered. That adds up to parkrunners crossing the finish line 138 million times, and more than 16 million volunteering moments helping to bring events to life each week."
Our thanks to Campbell for stepping up and leading an animal themed warm up this morning. ππ ππππ¦πππ’π

Jacob Dickson has completed all of his runs at our event too and we were super stoked to present him with his half-marathon wristband. Great work! β€οΈ
Dixie McAllister completed all her runs with us too and we were delighted to present her with her half-marathon wristband. Way to go! β€οΈ

β½ Scotland v Haiti kicks off before Hailes Quarry junior parkrun this Sunday, and we're looking for a few volunteer marshals.
After cheering on Scotland, why not swap to cheering on our amazing junior parkrunners? π£πββοΈπββοΈ
Marshals are so important to our event. They are our biggest cheerleaders and help make our event fun, safe and welcoming for every child.
If you can help, please email [email protected] with your parkrun number.
Thank you!
