The parkrun adventurers reflect on a big weekend celebrating Ugly Christmas in July and the return of parkrun in England, with Mel catching up with Dan Buckley from Leazes parkrun to hear more from the big return day. We have roving reports from Alison at Taupo parkrun, Dave at Graham Andrews parkrun, Mark at Mt Clarence parkrun and Tracey embraces her new challenge at Kedron parkrun. Plus all the latest stats from The Informant and even more festive fun from Dazza’s. With so much parkrun, it’s almost easy to forget our hosts are still in lockdown!
