This is a fantastic podcast to learn all about parkrun and adventuring. I have so many parkruns on my list. Can’t wait to tick them off. Keep up the great work Mel and Ollie.

Listening to the podcast this week brought happy tears! It was so good to hear about the parkrun at Grey Goose parkrun and the positive impact parkrun has had for the community and women. Very heartfelt! Thank you so. Fun for sharing.

Thanks Mel & Team! We can hear the smiles in your voices which is cool. Love hearing the roving reports & learning about the different parkrun locations. It’s a real inclusive community vibe - walk, run, or volunteer parkrun is for you. The adventurers podcast will leave you warm fuzzing :)

This is a great podcast for anyone who loves parkrun, with a particular emphasis on parkruns down under. I love how the community is involved in this show, from roving reports through to Dazza’s cafe. The only problem is I now have an ever-growing list of parkruns I’d like to visit!

With the new presenters the show feels fresher and no doubt helped by the return of actual parkrun events. An enjoyable listen, thank you.

Sadly Corona has stopped Parkrun. But not Parkrun adventures... so freedom runs with a podcast = happy Al

We’ve loved listening to The parkrun Adventurers - especially on the way to and from all of our parkrun adventures! Mel and Scotty (and then later Mel and the Channel 5 news crew) have inspired us to travel far and experience the parkrun community whenever we went ! Thank you team!

My boss doesnt like the long episodes, I wont come in from the carpark until the episode is finished. And you couldnt count the amount of times I've been caught behind the wheel laughing like a lunatic. Well done Mel, Scottie and crew on an always entertaining pod.Read full review »

Mel and Scotty’s passion for parkrun makes this a fantastic podcast for parkrunners. If you’ve every wondered why people get up each week for a free, timed 5km run or walk listen and learn.

The podcast hosts, Mel and Scotty, bring a fantastic vibe and are such fun to listen to. Talk about inspiring. Now I want to finish stopwatch bingo (only 6 left!), sail the seven C's and improve my p-index. And tourist for my alphabet. And and and. Gets me through the week to parkrunday.

Thank you so much for brightening the dark and rainy early mornings in London as I cycle to work. Mel and Scotty really bring the parkrun to life from 12,000 miles away. I love listening and reminiscing on the few years that I lived in Australia. Just wish that I could be back in Oz doing the...Read full review »

Mel’s theory was definitely true for me. I’m a car podcast listener but today I’m off work but still had half an hour of parkrun adventurers to go, so was able to come give you guys a Five Star review for keeping me entertained and looking forward to parkrun day!
Aztecgold via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/08/19
For the avid parkrunner, this is great. Clever, witty and insightful with great guests and segments. A good way to get your parkrun fix on a non-parkrun day.
sallyhepp via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/08/19
Look forward the the podcast each week. Enjoy the roving reports - want to visit Victory Height after the interview with the RD. Thanks guys

The silly thing is, I listened to the first three episodes and then stopped, not at all sure why! I listened again to the Paul Freyne episode and that was it, I was hooked! I have been back and listened to all the episodes I missed and wait with much anticipation for the new episode each...Read full review »

I'm enjoying this! Learning more about Parkrun across Australia. Have been going from newest each week and working from the start to try to catch all of them.

Always informative. Love hearing about new parkrun's. Enjoy the reviews and adventures. I listen on long runs and always get a chuckle. A little geographical clarification could be helpful as some parkrun names are not well known towns. Love the chit chat between hosts.Read full review »

Love the midweek fix from my fave parkrun adventurers. Especially love the banter!
WendyAFG via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/25/16
Good discussion about the parkrun community, mostly in Australia but also covering news from other countries. Banter is passable, cricket knowledge needs work
Drawsolderprintplay via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/25/16
Look forward to this podcast every week - entertaining, interesting, and learn something new about parkrun every time I listen. Love the interviews, and the random banter is fun too. Great work Mel and Scott, keep the great podcast coming!!

Podcasts accompany me when hiking, running and cycling. I love a good podcast especially ones that feature Australian accents. Mel and Scott are such delightfully positive and funny co-hosts. Their engagement with all things parkrun is infectious (in a good way). Please keep up the great work.

Mel and Scott do a fantastic job, mixing the joy of parkrun, volunteering, adventuring, across the parkrun globe, with a little bit of wonderfully poor humour and excellent movie references :) love it...
