parkrun adventurers podcast

Lyndell's back on Level Two and there's a lot to catch up on with TOC. We reflect on parkrun Australia's Day for Daniel, including welcoming the Morcombe Foundation Mascot, "Morky", to Dazzas. A record breaking launch 'slaughters' an Australian record and goes straight to the podium. We find out how many adventurers met their match in the consolidated club report, and our roving reporters meet new friends at Mauerweg in Berlin, Bongil Bongil in New South Wales, and Maryborough in Queensland. The adventurers are a friendly bunch... who will they meet next?

This week we bring you a bonus episode - light on hosts, but heavy on adventures. In this roving report collection we hear from: Eman at Hasenheide in Germany Greg from You Yangs in Victoria Ali from Oriam in Scotland Tune in next week for our regular chit chat episode, and stay tuned for more bonus roving report collection episodes in the future!

This episode is brought to you by Sarah and Simon. Sarah takes her Wilson to a new high, while Simon watches his reindex fly. Ever wonder how someone goes from leading a sedentary lifestyle to conquering marathon after marathon? An interview with athlete Peita Hillman explains just that. There are roving reports from Ottawa-Carleton Trailway, Donaupark, Vienna and Māngere Bridge parkruns and all the regulars, including Dazzas, Reginald and launches aplenty. Discussion then turns to how close Christmas is and how things are going with the Christmas shopping. Is that jingle bells we hear?

Lyndell’s taken Long Service Leave, so Alison from across the ditch jumps in to help TOC. We reflect on streaky September and parkruns opening and closing. We have roving reports from Moussette in Canada, Gloucester District in New South Wales, Farfalle in Italy and Dorothy Nyembe in South Africa and Johan has a chat to PSH. Dazza serves a Better British Breakfast, the launches are back in full swing, and Christmas Planning begins.

Sarah and Simon are joined by a special guest: an athlete and ultramarathon runner. There’s discussions of new milestone colours, the colour purple and why ugly Christmas shirts are in fact worn in July. There are roving reports from Bushy, Kanata, Ottawa and Inch Beach parkruns. Pippa rounds out Streaky September for the year, Reginald quizzes us with a Who Am I? and Dazza finds the inner pirate in some of us. This episode is full of wisdom, experience and some incredible adventures. Join us
