parkrun adventurers podcast

This week we bring you a bonus episode - light on hosts, but heavy on adventures.

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

Saddle up listeners, this one's a uniquely long one. Lyndell and TOC discuss loads of launches and parkrun partnerships aplenty.

We have roving reports from Sale in Victoria, Mamquam Spawning Trail in Canada, and Kingsway Park, Urmston in the UK. Reginald visits Lithuania and highlights the unicorn events of parkrun found in far flung UK territories. Pippa the Streakmeister keeps us on track for Streaky September, TOC checks up on notties, and we see who's stopped by at Dazzas.

They say you can't catch a unicorn, but you might just find one at parkrun…

Are you ready to call bingo from the roof tops? This episode Sarah and Simon aim to get you back on the straight and narrow and into a routine. They talk about pain, streaking and the number 168.

TOC and Lyndell put the call out for audience participation, with Streaky September just around the corner and the Nottie on the decline.

Dazza is as popular as ever, with lots of interest in pies and cats and Reginald has us guessing again.

We have roving reports from Motueka Beach Reserve, Town Beach and Ambleside. There's plenty of ways to get involved with the adventurers. Are you ready?

This pod, Simon and Sarah bring you news of a new parkrun country. Exciting times! 

Sarah interviews Steve Howe at Long Point parkrun, and Simon shares about his latest Gold Coast race and volunteering. 

This episode gets a little ‘ugly’ and we will answer the question, who exactly is The Hunting Lady? 

There are roving reports from Chipping Norton, Warkworth Showgrounds and The Ponds parkrun. 

And Reginald shares their knowledge about ambassadors, while Lyndell rounds out the episode…

TOC and Lyndell have plenty of news, but no emails! An important envelope gets lost on level two, we salute our senior parkrunners, and Johan meets the oldest creature on earth at the newest parkrun in the world. We have roving reports from Plantation Forest, Opaheke, and Jells parkruns, and then we ‘hop’ and ‘dip’ over to Dazza’s. Oh, and, no big deal, but we also find out the location of palm 27…

Sarah and Simon have filled this episode with news, chills and a palm27 announcement… already? You read it right! Also, you’ll hear Reginald discuss all things about the Netherlands, we celebrate a former pod host, and hear why Simon decides winter isn’t the time of year to get cheeky. There are roving reports from Toyen parkrun, parkrun Zamek w Malborku as well as Oosterhout parkrun. Ever wondered if the Adventurers like pineapple on their pizzas? Even if you haven’t, you will hear all about it on this pod. Warning: It may make you hungry.
