Hellloooo parkrunners.
Have I got your attention????
Well did you know that there is NO specific parkrun running attire you have to wear SO..
If you’re feeling a wee bit chilly, and we are expecting it to be…did you know nothing is stopping you from running in your Pjs!

*****BUT…to be able to run in either pjs or shorts we need someone to give out finish tokens…if you can help, just let us know below!

So come along and enjoy these beautiful mornings…it’s such a glorious time of the year!
See everyone at 6.45am if you’re a first timer to Northshore parkrun in whatever attire you chose to keep you warm!

North Shore parkrun – Event #616

What a beautiful morning at North Shore parkrun!

A huge thank you to everyone who came down and joined us this morning. We were treated to amazing weather, great company, and plenty of smiles from start to finish.

It was wonderful to see our regular parkrunners, welcome new participants to our community, and catch up with visitors from near and far. Whether you ran, walked, volunteered, cheered, or supported from the sidelines, thank you for being part of another fantastic parkrun morning.

As always, a special thank you goes to our incredible volunteers. Your time, enthusiasm and support make parkrun possible each and every week.

Quote of the Week

“I would rather die of passion than of boredom.”
— Vincent Van Gogh

We hope you enjoyed your Saturday morning as much as we did, and we look forward to seeing everyone again next week for another 5km of fun, friendship, and fresh air.

🌞🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ Sometimes the best part of parkrun isn’t the time on the clock—it’s the smiles, conversations, and community spirit we share along the way.
See you next Saturday!

💜 WEEKLY PARKRUN REMINDER + VOLUNTEER APPRECIATION WEEK 💜

This Saturday we celebrate the incredible humans who make North Shore parkrun happen week after week 🙌

The smiling faces.
The early alarms.
The cheering squad.
The high-fives at 7am.
The legends standing out on course encouraging every runner, walker and participant 💙

To every marshal, scanner, timekeeper, tail walker, Run Director and token sorter — thank you.
We are forever grateful for your support, time and effort ✨

North Shore parkrun simply would not happen without our volunteers 💛

✨ Welcome to Event #614 ✨

Here we go again… and honestly, what a cracking morning for it!
The weather is absolutely picture perfect, the coffee is flowing, and North Shore parkrun is once again full of smiling faces, fast legs and questionable decisions made before 7am. 😅🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

So many familiar faces out there this morning, plus plenty of visitors and first timers — welcome to the party! We hope you loved your morning with us and caught the parkrun bug straight away.

And to all our first timers… congratulations on your PB! Technically every first parkrun is a PB, and we fully support claiming it proudly. 😂👏

Now speaking of PBs…

A huge congratulations to one of our brilliant Run Directors, Dave, for smashing out a brand new PB AND taking out the number 1 position this morning! 🔥🥇
That’s what happens when all the stars align: cool weather, fast legs and just enough suffering to make it memorable.

Quote of the week:

✨ “The body achieves what the mind believes.”
— Anonymous

And of course, a massive thank you to our incredible volunteers. North Shore parkrun simply would not happen without you legends giving up your time so everyone else can run, walk, jog, cheer and barcode scan their way through Saturday morning. ❤️

We loved seeing you all out there and we’re already looking forward to doing it all again next weekend!

🏃‍♀️ PARKRUNNERS BE LIKE…
“Only 2km left…”
“That’s just 1km twice…”
“Or 500m four times…” 😅

The mental maths starts getting VERY creative somewhere around kilometre 3 😂

But somehow… we always make it to the finish line.
Usually powered by determination, community spirit, and the thought of post-parkrun coffee ☕😉

Brooks Running know that every parkrun is powered by more than walkers and runners, it’s powered by people in the local community.

That’s why this National Volunteer Week, Brooks is celebrating the incredible parkrun volunteers who help bring the community together every week. If you’ve volunteered at parkrun within the past 12 months, you’ll automatically go into the draw to win 1 of 5 pairs of Brooks Ghost 18s!

What an AMAZING turnout this morning at North Shore parkrun! 🎉🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

So many visitors and first timers joined us today — welcome to the North Shore parkrun family! We hope you loved every sweaty, smiley, slightly breathless second of it 😄

And WOW… the PB bell was working overtime this morning! 🔔🔥
So many personal bests out on the course! Huge congratulations to everyone who chased down a new PB today — all those early mornings, training runs and “just one more km” moments are paying off!

✨ Quote of the week ✨
“Everything you’ve ever wanted is on the other side of fear.” — George Addair

A massive THANK YOU to all our wonderful volunteers 💛
Without you, parkrun simply doesn’t happen. From scanners to tail walker, timers to token sorting legends — you are the heartbeat of our community!

See you all next Saturday for another 5km of fun, friendship and questionable alarm clock decisions!
