And that’s a wrap on 2026s Green Drive 5 💚

WHAT A MORNING! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️🌳💚

A massive THANK YOU to every single runner, spectator, and volunteer who made today’s Bryan Grundy Green Drive 5 & Junior Mile such an incredible success!

From our amazing juniors kicking things off with huge smiles and sprint finishes, to the sea of club vests flying down Green Drive in the 5-miler, the energy from start to finish was top tier! 🏆✨

✨ A HUGE SHOUTOUT TO OUR VOLUNTEERS:
To our marshals, registration team, event team (to highlight just two Xavia Cooper and Joe Holt), water sweets and t-shirt crew, and setup/pack-down teams; this race simply doesn’t happen without your hard work and enthusiasm. You are the absolute heart of our club and wider community! A special thanks to Park View 4 U and Park View junior parkrun for joining our volunteer team 👏💚

Results for both races are available via the link in our bio and photos are being processed and will be shared (on our page) as soon as they’re ready.

In the meantime, put your feet up, celebrate your achievements, and enjoy that post race feeling! ☕️🍺🏅
