Event #558 – Saturday 30th May 2026
Autumn Bows Out, Frog Hollow Turns Up! πŸ‚πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

The final weekend of autumn arrived with a chilly breeze and a blanket of cloud overhead ☁️πŸ₯Ά, but that didn't stop the wonderful Frog Hollow community from hopping out of bed and onto the course!

A fantastic 179 walkers, joggers and runners made their way around Frog Hollow this week. Among them were 33 first-timers πŸ‘‹πŸŽ‰ who discovered that Saturday mornings can, in fact, be fun before 8am!

The course must have been sprinkled with magic frog dust this week because an incredible 30 participants smashed their Personal Bests! πŸš€β±οΈπŸ’¨ Whether it was by a second or several minutes, there were plenty of happy dances happening around the finish area. πŸ’ƒπŸ•Ί

Representatives from 8 different clubs joined the action, proving once again that Frog Hollow is the place to be on a Saturday morning. πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸ’š

🌟 Volunteer Superheroes Save the Day! 🌟
As always, the event only happened thanks to our magnificent team of 12 volunteers. Without them we'd just be 179 people standing around wondering where the finish funnel went! πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈπŸ˜‚
A huge round of applause goes to:

πŸ‘ Gay BOURKE
πŸ‘ Greg DORAN
πŸ‘ Peter DOUGLAS
πŸ‘ Susanne TALBOT
πŸ‘ Mark BLACKWOOD
πŸ‘ Jenny DORAN
πŸ‘ Janine GLEESON
πŸ‘ Brenna CARRIGY
πŸ‘ Amy BLACKWOOD
πŸ‘ Karen GERAKIS
πŸ‘ Gina HARREX
πŸ‘ Darren BEDFORD

These legends braved the cold, clicked stopwatches, scanned barcodes, cheered loudly and generally made everything run smoother than a PB attempt on fresh legs. β€οΈπŸ™Œ

πŸ“ˆ Frog Hollow By The Numbers
Since the very first Frog Hollow parkrun on 14th June 2014 πŸ“…:

🐸 7,740 participants have taken part
πŸƒ 50,274 parkruns have been completed
πŸ“ 251,370 kilometres have been covered
⚑ 6,744 Personal Bests have been achieved
πŸ™‹ 734 volunteers have contributed
πŸŽ‰ 5,214 volunteer roles have been filled

That's enough distance to run around Australia several times, although we'd recommend taking a few water breaks along the way! πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ˜…

Until next Saturday, keep those barcode tags safe, keep training, and remember:
No barcode, no result, no exceptions! πŸ“±πŸš«πŸ˜œ
See you all next week at the Hollow! πŸΈπŸ’šπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

Crikey, what a ripper morning out at Frog Hollow parkrun this Saturday! πŸŒ€οΈβ„οΈ It was fresh enough to freeze the budgie smugglers off ya, but thankfully calm as β€” no sideways rain, no gale-force winds, just classic chilly autumn conditions perfect for belting out a PB! πŸ’¨πŸ”₯

This week, a mighty 151 legends ran, jogged, waddled and power-walked their way around the course πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸšΆβ€β™‚οΈπŸΈ including 23 first timers who either: A) accidentally took a wrong turn into the park 🀣 or B) finally listened to their mates saying β€œcome give parkrun a crack!”
And fair dinkum β€” 27 people smashed out Personal Bests! πŸ₯³πŸ’ͺ Must’ve been the cold air giving everyone turbo mode or maybe someone spiked the coffee with rocket fuel β˜•πŸš€

Representatives from 5 clubs joined the fun, proving once again that Frog Hollow is where the cool kids hang out on a Saturday morning πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘

But as always, none of this chaos happens without our absolute superstar volunteers β€” the high-vis heroes keeping the show on the road! πŸ’›πŸ™Œ
