24.01.2022 In Flanders Fields BY JOHN MCCRAE In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row,... That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie, In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields.

22.01.2022 Throwback Thursday The day was September 16, 2017 and it was Event #83. The weather was starting to warm up and our parkrunners were certainly feeling the heat ... Nothing says parkrun fun like hot, sweaty pain faces. As they splashed across the finish line , drenched in effort, our familiar and supportive volunteers greeted each parkrunner with a smile and a Well Done, which makes all that effort worthwhile. So as the weather warms up, remember to get out there, smash out some (not) parkruns, work up a good sweat and stay hydrated Peace Andy . . . . . #wyndhamvaleparkrun #parkrunaustralia #parkrunfamily #runningismytherapy

21.01.2022 Throwback Thursday Today, we are time-warping back to this day, August 20th, 2016, for Event #26. Twas early days at our parkrun, and out they came to have some fun... They lined up at the starting line, intent on PBs and record times They ran with arms open wide To show their joy at being outside They pushed their prams and walked their dogs Made pain-faces as they went along There were many laughs, some smiles and cheers And a high-vis army of volunteers Some synchronised their running stride And waved their arms and jumped really high Regardless of the way they ran They did it because they know they can So freedom run and (not) parkrun, too And do it til this isos through At present, parkruns what we lack But rest assured, we will be back. Heres hoping the remaining part of your week is run-filled and devoid of stress. Andy #wyndhamvaleparkrun #parkrunaustralia #iloveparkrun #freedomruns #notparkruns #parkrunfamily

19.01.2022 Flashback Friday Event #30, September 24th, 2016. I see trees of green, skies of blue and clouds of white. And I think to myself, what a wonderful world.... This was such a sunny and smiley parkrun and was early on in our parkruns infancy. Running, walking and just being outdoors can be incredibly beneficial for your mood. With the spring weather upon us, and the days getting longer and warmer Id say its the perfect time to get outdoors and smash out some (not) parkruns and breathe in some fresh air.

14.01.2022 Kylees parkrun journey My first parkrun was on the 26th of October 2019, Wyndham Vale parkruns first ever Diwaloween (Diwali + Halloween) event. I finished with a time of 53:16 with some encouragement from one of the lovely volunteer pacers Over the months my times gradually got faster as my fitness improved.

In total, Ive completed 11 parkruns and 11 (not) parkruns. Like all of you I miss parkrun and cant wait until we return. In the meantime, Ill continue staying active by completing (not) parkruns.

06.01.2022 Amandas parkrun journey I'm so thankful I gave into Tara and came along to WV parkrun for the first time. I remember thinking, running isnt my thing, this isn't for me and I couldn't have been more wrong. parkrun is for everyone! I've never met a more supportive and encouraging bunch of people. My first parkrun result on 14th of December 2019 was 47:40 and my current (not) parkrun PB on 25th of August 2020 is 35:02. ... OVER 12mins faster, something I never thought I would achieve. Not only has my health improved since I started but I've made so many great friends from WV parkrun and I'm so thankful for them and their support. Since the start of 2020 I have completed approximately 15 virtual events (BLING BLING BABY! ). I'm currently completing two - Run Against Violence (130km in 19 days) & Rise of the Quarantines (for the Royal Children's Hospital). Bring on my first 10k this weekend! Love you all and can't wait for pakrun to return. Amanda *If youd like to share your parkrun journey, send us a message Happy (not) parkrunning! María
