Episode 437 - Woe is a crowd

Coooeee, Adventurers – Mel and TOC have been doubling up at parkrun – so we have a shorter pod! You’re welcome. That hasn’t stopped them discussing all the things – like big number twos, missing glasses and stinky tops. Luckily the roving reporters bring some stability at Haigh Woodland, Wöhrder See and Renmark parkruns. And can you guess the Who Am I? Four points if you can.

Episode 436 - The Vote That Counts

Simon tells us about his many adventures over the last month, while Sarah shares news of her visit to the newest parkrun in the west. They talk Unity Day, launches, and a future prediction. Will it be right? There are roving reports at Neale Park & Henley Lake, Abbey Park and Coolum Eco parkrun. Reginald talks all things Swedish and let’s not forget, it’s time to get booking your pALM adventure for 2026!

Episode 435 - The Restructure

We wish to advise, that due to recent office restructures, this weeks pod may be a little longer than usual. Jokes. It’s really because Mel and TOC are back and like a yarn. Blah, blah, blah, change of staff. Blah, blah, blah, palm location announcement. Also those roving reporters love a chat *eyeroll* *hug* *laughing face*, namely at East Brighton, Pallara and Merredin Peak parkruns. Tune in for all the things.

Episode 434 - It’s Upside Down

It’s Simon & Sarah’s time to turn up the volume and mix things up this week. Sarah shares all about her adventure to the nation’s capital, while Simon recaps his P-Index achievements. There were roving reports from Lyndell at Scribbly Gums Conservation, Toc at Point Hut Pond and Alison at Caroline Bay parkrun. There’s a swather of launches, percentage wars and yet another new segment. Plus there is something else you may just want to hear, so keep your ears open.

Episode 433 - Ready, Set, Streak...

In a busy week, Toc & Mel try get their heads around parkrun launch policy as the marathon factor comes to Sydney. Our roving reporters have been busy as Alison checks in at Halswell Quarry, Dave has a visitor at Averley and Ali bring the news from Wimpole parkrun. Dazza flies in, then stops to count the numbers, Reginald goes O/S and six countries have launches. It’s a marathon episode.

Episode 432 - Amazing Grace

Join Simon and Sarah for lots of positive parkrun news. There’s discussions about Singapore’s events, brutal punishment, and Simon even accepts a challenge! There are roving reports by Yvette at Central Burnaby, Callum at Coronation Park and Tracey at Workman’s Beach parkrun. There are launches, new club members and let’s not forget, Streaky September is just around the corner!

Episode 431 - Start Spreading the News

Cooo-eee Adventurers! Roles were reversed this week with TOC heading west to the South and Mel in the West and then staying west. The office is looking cleaner, the Big Apple is ripe for the picking but a cancellation closer to home brings discussion. There are roving reports from Downsview in Canada, Billericay in the UK plus a magical report and celebration from Trentham Gardens. Reginald champions Ireland and with that, the office door is locked up as the Victorians head North.
