It’s a very newsy pod this week. Mel took her press pass to the new Dixon Field parkrun and Chanel 5 news crew reports hit the presses from all over. Our international reporter, TOC, checked in from Donaupark parkrun in Austria. PK was on a Windex-hunt at Narooma Wetlands. And Lyndell was investigating mysteries at Robelle Domain. We also have a swather of emails, interstate updates from the west side, and a ‘soldier’s five’ from the Office Lady.

Olly will definitely be disappointed he missed it as we hear from Rachel with a special Eurovision club corner. And you’ll have to let us know what you think about Mel's fishing trip …

This week, parkruns far and wide celebrated International Womens Day. We think that’s pretty cool – but even cooler is a huge (not)parkrun milestone and an even bigger bucket list adventure! Mel was riding high at Jerrabomberra Mountain Reserve parkrun, while our roving reporters dropped in from Jurien Bay, Sirromet and Grey Goose parkruns. Rachel is stuck on repeat, we have more Big Things and the Quizmaster drops us a lasso…er line!
