This week Olly catches up with USA ED Sarah Hudson for news on the unpause of Byxbee parkrun. While Mel is learning more about baked goods at Dazza's. We've got roving reports from Tracey at New Farm, Mark & Cam at Cottesloe plus Hannah files a guest report from Bass Point notparkrun. And there's lots of laughter surrounding a new challenge. But whose challenge could it be?

This week the parkrun adventurers are almost all working on the weekend, as Olly stays put and Mel recaps a visit to Dorset Recreation Reserve and some juniors taking the stage at Eynesbury Heritage Trail Junior parkrun.  Marvellous Mark checks in from South Australia at Port Lincoln plus a bonus freedom run report from Yeldulknie Weir parkrun, while Tracey in a Tutu steps in with her suggestions for a sensational sausage roll soundtrack.

Plus all the chat from Dazza’s, the Informant and updates on all the latest July parkrun returns and celebrations!

This week Olly and family were busy notparkrunning any which way, while Mel returned to Pakenham parkrun for a dog assisted family run. Tracey gave us the SPF & TCC stats and aside from Alison at Trentham Memorial parkrun NZ, everyone else was partying in SA! Meanwhile the new Informant is having a few teething problems...

There's a shift in the ledger this week with Victorian parkruns returning while NSW deals with covid restrictions. Plus, we hear from most of the channel 5 news crew and there is a strange similarity in their reports. And Mel has two new suggestions for challenges in Western Victoria.

Episode 240 is brought to you by the numbers: 7, 8, 250, 325, 350 and 418!

This week we hear Roving Reports from Tracey, live from the tail at Bunyaville, and Nadine at Ted Scobie Oval, who offers a hot tip on a place to visit while in town.  We receive mail from the team at South Toowoomba, hear about more longest run adventures and Mel shares her parkrunday experience too.  Spoiler alert – it has a real parkrun in it!

Oh, and who can tell us what our SPF is for this week?

This week Olly & Mel recount their Longest Runs and Tracey also pops in with audio from North Brisbane (too soon). We hear from David in England with news of notparkruns and pastie preferences, plus all the crowd from Dazza's. But... hang on ... what announcement does The Informant have??

This week join Mel & Olly as they hero the Sausage Roll and celebrate the birth of the Sausage Roll Club!  Dave chats with the team at Bourke and one of the latest members of the Indigenous Marathon Project, Tracey volunteers at New Farm and PK and the gang hang out at Charleston. Olly is zooming into Longest Run Day while Mel plans her next Nottie.

While Olly was off adventuring at Bowral parkrun, Mel was busy chatting to Communications Ambassador and Lillie parkrunner Emma Keer, about the return of events in the USA. We also hear from Alison at Wanaka parkrun and PK at Christies Beach … but who is stealing Kit Kats in the office?

Join us this week as Mel adventures to Dolls Point parkrun and Olly delights in visiting penguins. We hear from Tracey on The V-side with Achilles at Sandgate & Kedron, and Lyndell checks out Des Connor Park junior parkrun. Plus we discuss parkrun restarts around the globe, ugly buffs and upcoming Longest run plans.

It's National Volunteer week and the adventurers are talking all things Hi Vis. We have roving reports from Shelley parkrun, W.A. and Pegasus parkrun N.Z, we hear Tracey's Top 10 different Volunteering roles, Mel gives the low down on Happy Hill and a familiar voice returns to the podwaves.
