parkrun adventurers podcast

Episode 299 - Buzz Buzz

This week, we hear about Mel’s visit to Frank Keenan Reserve parkrun, while Olly stayed local for milestones and tributes. TOC brings us a conference roving report with ABC Presenter Lisa Millar, David Bravos drops in from Byxbee parkrun, and Lyndell is feeling the cold out at Stanthorpe parkrun. We discuss how good Melbourne coffee is, Olly’s mullet growing potential, and enjoy the usual buzz from Dazza’s. And yes, Olly sings.

Episode 298 - Not Flat

This week the parkrun Adventurers reflect on a big weekend in Sydney, including a mega-frond at Cooks River parkrun, the return of the City to Surf, and all the other adventures that left us a little exhausted come Monday! We hear roving reports from Tracey in Atherton, Rich Ard from his first international parkrun at Sippo Lake in the USA and a debut roving report from Abi at Werribee Mansion! Rest assured, we’ve not left out Dazza’s or our Informant. We may even have another poem zone…

Episode 297 - The one when Mel sings

This week while Olly was a speedy roving photographer at home, Mel was in the company of bananas at Kirkdale. Confused? Read on… An old favourite returns (again), a bottle washes up and there are roving reports from Lake Claremont, Darwin, Manzini & Stratford-Upon-Avon. Abi’s away this week – no need to listen to the end.

Episode 296 - Hot and Gold

This week while Mel shares stories of her adventure to Umbagong parkrun, we discover that someone plugged the Hotline back in. Ingrid files a roving report from The Ponds and Alison comes to us from Stratford-Upon-Avon. We also have some bumper emails, Comm Games updates, plus all the usual fun with Dazzas and pronunciation challenges.

Episode 295 – Aidan Hobbs

Olly is back! Yes we know we didn’t tell you he was having a week off … but never fear, we didn’t miss any adventures. However, this week’s pod is full of fun with an interview with speedy parkrunner Aidan Hobbs, roving reports from Alison at Cambridge NZ and Sarah at Willoughby, and both Informants making an appearance.

Episode 294 - the new U

This week on the parkrun adventurers podcast, Mel shares the news of her visit to You Yangs parkrun, while we hear Roving Reports from Mark at the trial of the new Umbagong District parkrun, Lyndell at New Farm parkrun, Pippa at Rendlesham Forest parkrun and PK at Glenoma parkrun. And we celebrate the return of some familiar and favourite items, including Dazza’s, our Informant and the Consolidated Club report.

Episode 293 - Hackers

This week, Mel and TOC join a few adventurers for a frond at Kirkdale Reserve parkrun, PK joins the pirate club at Cairns parkrun, statesman Sarah checks in from Kununurra parkrun, and Sam catches up with a familiar Northern Territorian at Darwin parkrun. But closer to home, something is not quite right at Adventurer HQ. Better stock up on the Caramilk…

Episode 292 - Floods, Cows & Milkshakes

It’s raining men!! No not really… but NSW is flooding and Mel had a stressful visit to Wollongong, dodging cancellations before ending up at Cowpasture Reserve parkrun. Meanwhile, Olly popped up at North Sydney parkrun with the Idea’s Man! We also have news from Johan in Namibia and a special NAIDOC report from Ali. Plus all the fun from Canada Day, Dazza’s and the ongoing office industrial relations.

Episode 291 - Because

This week saw Olly back at his home parkrun, while Mel finally ticked off a visit to New Farm in QLD. Wait till you hear Olly’s singing at Dazza’s! And there is some news to share and some to redirect. PK returns with a roving report from Copper Trail, Eman pops in from Railway Park and Mel chats to some visiting EDs at Eynesbury Heritage Trail juniors. For legal reasons, we cannot comment on the current supply of Caramilk in the staff room fridge.

Episode 290 - 98, 99, 100!

This week’s podcast is dedicated to those that help us enjoy our parkrun vicariously when we inevitably have to miss that special day of the week…

The parkrun Adventurers catch up on a lot of celebrations and speed, with parkrun and personal milestones, and a whole lot of pace! Several of the parkrun Adventurer community visit Dolls Point, with Tracey in a Tutu and TOC bringing us the buzz of the morning, while Tania reports in from Pegasus’s and Brett Bailey’s combined milestone and Sarah chats with a new member of the team at Cottesloe while searching for a message in a bottle. We’ve got mail, Dazza’s, and a whole lot of great friends and company to help us all savour our parkrundays, even if we missed them.
