22.01.2022 We ask that all volunteers and participants check in for contact tracing each week - by scanning the QR code on display at the event or by scanning the QR code in this post (it's the same code). You can do this before, during or after the event. In most cases you should be able to open the camera app on your phone, point your phone at the QR code and it'll automatically scan the QR code and pop up a link to kick off the check in process. If you have any issues with this then alternatively you can use the Service Victoria app and enter location code B7G 8Z7.

12.01.2022 We've added a new role to our regular volunteer roster - "lead bike". The role of the lead bike volunteer is to cycle the course ahead of the first participant to provide directions and ensure the public along the route are informed of incoming participants. This is particularly important as our attendance numbers continue to grow and our course is on paths shared with other park users. As always: - if you're able to help out, please email us at [email protected] (or s...end us a Facebook message) - you can always find the current volunteer roster here: https://www.parkrun.com.au/maribyrnong/futureroster/ See more

10.01.2022 What a beautiful morning for our 290th parkrun at Maribyrnong! We had our second highest turn out, with 384 parkrunners, joggers and walkers making the most of the glorious conditions.Thank you so much to the awesome team of volunteers who made today's event run so smoothly!
10.01.2022 Maribyrnong parkrun will be holding an event as normal tomorrow (March 14), however please see below (and the link) for the latest update on the COVID-19 implications for parkrun. parkrun's overall strategic position - which Maribyrnong parkrun will follow - is that where specifically recommended or required by health organisations, governments, or landowners, events will be cancelled. This includes where events may not quite reach the full criteria, such as where gatherings ...of over 1,000 people are banned; in this situation all events in that region will be cancelled regardless of event size. The recommendations released by the Australian government this afternoon apply to static gatherings of up to 2 hours and do not apply to tomorrow's parkrun event, so the event will be proceeding as normal. We're expecting a larger-than-usual attendance - as Albert (Melbourne) and Parkville parkruns have cancelled (for reasons unrelated to COVID-19) - so we would like an additional barcode scanner volunteer (ideally 2). If you can help out, please comment on this post, send us a Facebook message or email us at [email protected].
06.01.2022 A reminder that our Maribyrnong parkrun events take place on shared public paths - parkrunners don't have right of way and we need to share the paths with other park users including walkers, runners and cyclists. This is particularly important in the first 1 km or so when we have a large group of runners bunched up together, and especially so near the 'pinch point' where the path narrows. We recently had an incident where a Maribyrnong parkrunner was reported to have told ano...ther park user to 'get out of the
04.01.2022 After being the Event Director for Maribyrnong parkrun for 6 years, Michael Hough has passed the Event Director torch to another couple of long-time Maribyrnong parkrunners - Stuart Hilton and Chris Wootton. Michael was the founding Event Director for Maribyrnong parkrun (back in 2014) - in addition to being Event Director he was Run Director for the first 11 events and he's been Run Director, volunteered at and run and walked many many events since. Michael's not leaving us ...- we'll still see him at Maribyrnong from time to time, including as Run Director :) A huge thankyou goes to Michael for everything he's done (and continues to do) for Maribyrnong parkrun!
04.01.2022 The latest COVID-19 update (the key part is "all parkrun events will now continue to be suspended until at least the end of April"):

03.01.2022 A reminder that tomorrow's (March 21) Maribyrnong parkrun event is *cancelled*. It is incredibly important that we do not go to our course tomorrow: a) Because it's not the right thing to do for people's health. b) Because it will look like the parkrun family doesn't care about everyone's health....
