We have bonus Olly this week as we round out October with dress up tales (or should that be fails?).
Melissa chose to #getgood at GreenWay parkrun and found a curious bagpipe playing GP to chat social prescribing and the mental health benefits of parkrun.
And Lyndell the Legendary is back with 11th birthday celebrations from a parkrun we all know well – Kawana!

Sarah joins Simon on Level 2 with a view to go over her trip to Ridley Place Foreshore and his return to Sirromet. They spoke double Dutch on Whit Monday, were Franc about their feelings about French parkruns and caught up on Tim Franklin’s whereabouts. There was also some late mail received all the way from the Netherlands and they checked in on Dazza. There were launches, The Birthday Boy and roving reports from Lyndell at Glasshouse Mountains Conservation parkrun, Alison at Tokoinranta, David at Ridley Place Foreshore and Mel dropped in from Armidale.

Episode 381 - Ah-sigh-ee

Nordic special days and a swather of launches had Mel’s tongue in a twist but not before she surprised Peppertree parkrun with a visit. TOC, meanwhile, returned to what he loves best, supporting Nagambie Lake in country Victoria. Lyndell was interviewing Mandalorians at Cleveland parkrun, and Calum sang us a Mersey tune from Burnage. We also have all the usuals with an extra helping of Rachel.

Episode 380 - In a twist

Tatooine in and hear Mel and Simon recap Bells Parade and Kedron, as well as the galaxy of launches and roving reports from across the universe (Victoria juniors in Glasgow, Walvis Bay in Namibia and Warwick in Qld). Then Rachel brings us some clubs from around the cantina. It’s a longer one this time, for an adventure far, far away.

Episode 379 - R2-RD

It’s a blue moon pod – which means Olly is back to join Mel at Level 2 and bring us up to date on Disney princesses, Welsh launches and sailing. If that isn’t exciting enough – TOC slips in the back door to chat to Run the World creator, Travis Ireland, giving insight into how the innovative platform was created and his journey to find love for parkrun. Rachel dips her toes in the water, Dazza goes bat crazy, and Tassie seems to be the place to be. Tune in…

Episode 378 - Run the World

Back to regular programming at Level Two with a View with Mel upping her p-index at Wilson Botanic parkrun while TOC was offering auroras with the sunshine over at the Stump. We chat about the new ED/EA volunteer credits, discuss the Voronoi map, cover May celebrations with the birthday boy, catch up on a swather of launches plus… Johan reports from Piggly Wiggly, Lyndell splits herself between Oakey and Capestone Lake and Marvellous Mark shuns Bushy for Gunnersbury parkrun. Tune in to find out why!
