Many thanks to Emily Rose Turner for today's Run Report (with just a little help from Sophie Cotterell) which can be found here:

What a great turnout this morning with 570 participants and over 40 volunteers. It was lovely to welcome everyone from Pedal, Paddle, Pace... and lots of people enjoyed some goodies from the Bake Sale. Results have been submitted and should be processed soon - thank you to everyone for closing up the gaps in the funnel and returning all of our tokens! Just a reminder, we're cancelled next week as The Cheese & Chilli Festival is taking place, but we look forward to seeing you on Saturday 13th June.

Photos finally uploaded 😥

You can get to them from the Photos link on the Wi******er parkrun web page - or directly in Flickr, here...

Otherwise, enjoy 😁

A big thank you to Thea Tallack who not only volunteered as a marshal today, but has written a run report which can be found here...

*** Results uploaded ***

Well done to 515 cheery participants and a great big "Thank you" to 45 brilliant volunteers.

The results are now uploaded... and the photos are going up, slowly 🥱

In the meantime here are a few to whet your appetite...

Have a great weekend

There is no Wi******er juniors on Sunday this week (17th May) as the Race for Life will be using the park.

We will be back the following week - 24th May - and can’t wait to see you there! If you can volunteer, comment below or email us at [email protected]

See you soon!

Thanks very much to visitor Lysanne Broomfield for her run report for this morning's parkrun. We're very glad you enjoyed your 2nd visit to us and hope you come and see us again soon!
As Lysanne said: "volunteering at parkrun is a life enhancing experience" - we couldn't agree more 🙂!

Return to Wi******er: A Busy One – Event #570 | Wi******er parkrun Return to Wi******er: A Busy One – Event #570 Posted on May 9, 2026 by winchesteroffice Run report by Lysanne Broomfield. The sun welcomed us this morning at Wi******er parkrun. The weather conditions were pretty much perfect, almost bordering on being a little too warm. Those hot Summer runs are ...

Wow, another sunny May morning and another bumper turnout! This morning we surpassed even last week with 663 finishers 😯! That's a record for a normal (not Christmas or our 500th) event 👏🏻!! So a massive well done to everyone and thank you for moving swiftly through the funnel and keeping phones away until you're through - with that and the longer funnel we managed to avoid anyone having to queue to pass the timekeepers.

And thanks of course to our amazing volunteers, including those that stepped in to help when they saw how busy it was - they kept things running smoothly and efficiently. We are so lucky to have you all helping us out 🙏🏻.

A few bits of lost property (see photos). The sunglasses and battery backup charger are in the pavilion - you can collect them next week or let us know here or via email at [email protected] if you need them more urgently. The blue hoody had a PSC card in it so is being dropped off there for you to collect.

Well done to the bumper crowd of 634 who ran/jogged/walked round this morning! We had loads of visitors this bank holiday weekend and a fair few milestones (some of whom kept it quiet so didn't get a shout-out!) - congratulations to all of them 🎉. And as ever, a massive thank you to all our amazing volunteers who make it all possible 👏🏻🙏🏻😊!!

Apologies for the congestion at the finish - we'll lengthen the funnel next week. But it would also help enormously if everyone could keep moving, with no gaps, in the funnel when it gets busy please. Looking your barcode up on your phone can wait until you've left the funnel 🙂. Thank you 🙏🏻.
