Avery Beach parkrun, Huntsville

We miss you parkrunners and hope that you are all having a good summer, with many good runs, despite this funny (not funny haha) time. Here is the most recent update from parkrun headquarters in the UK. At this point, parkrun has been restarted in New Zealand. Current plans are to open an entire country back up once it is safe to do so, as opposed to individual sites. As always we will keep you updated as we learn more. We wish you all a safe and happy long weekend, and wi...sh that we were seeing you tomorrow. We look forward to when we can. The parkrun 3 (Leigh, Kati, and Doug) See more

Catchy name! If you miss parkrun as much as we do, take a look at this: https://blog.parkrun.com/uk/2020/06/10/notparkrun-is-here/

Today Saturday 13-Jun we had a total of 63 runners, walkers and joggers completing laps of our stunning lake (55 males and 8 females). It was great to see ever...yone embracing today’s theme of Lego, and getting into full costume. Great effort! There were no milestones celebrated today, however we did have an awesome 63 first timers. Unfortunately there was a technical error and none of the times were officially recorded, but we all enjoyed getting out and about. Thankyou to our wonderful volunteers, who gave up their morning so that others could participate. Just a heads up that we did have some giant ducks trying to eat participants this morning, so it is extra important to make sure that children are always with an adult. See more

This week’s parkrun Canada blog comes to us from our neighbour, North Bay parkrun. https://blog.parkrun.com/ca/2020/06/02/finding-my-stride/

We miss you, and hope that you’re all well.

Hi parkrunners! We will be SO happy and grateful to see you, when we’re able to be together again. We hope that you’re keeping well and healthy. Here’s a video of a very cute couple, who really miss parkrun.

I might have to make the drive to North Bay!

We are incredibly grateful to Saucony Canada for the support they provide to parkrun Canada. #free #weekly #timed
