There's nothing like a group of like minded folks getting together on Saturday morning to walk, jog or run at their local parkrun. Don't forget to join us this Saturday as we meet at Bannockburn Bush for our weekly event. We love to celebrate milestones, so don't forget to let us know if you have one - we'd hate to miss you. See you there from 7:50 for first timers welcome and any other briefing information followed by an 8:00 start.

Bannockburn Bush parkrun Event #379 18-04-2026
We had a wonderful 107 people attend our parkrun this morning.
It is lovely seeing participants whether running, walking, chatting with friends or pushing the kids in a pram, all enjoying the cool, wind free conditions.
Thirteen had not run with us previously so we hope you enjoyed yourselves and will return soon.
There were also 14 people that clearly didn’t want to be out there any longer than necessary as they ran themselves a pb. Well done to you all.
We had a few local visitors today, which is always great to see. There was also a group from Surf Coast Trail Runners visiting us. Thank you for choosing to run our course today.
There was one milestone celebration. Peter Kayler-Thomson ran his 50th parkrun this morning. He has done 40 parkruns at Bannockburn bush with an impressive pb of 23:10. He has also volunteered too.
As always, a huge thank you to our volunteers. Julie gave an extremely enthusiastic First Timers welcome, Tam was slightly nervous about doing the timing for the first time but seeing the smile on her face throughout proved she had nothing to worry about, having Luke doing the Token Giveroutering assisted her I’m sure, young Ollie (assisted by Sara) handled the tech part of Barcode Scanning with ease, Tori enjoyed taking photos, Nicole & Paige clearly had fun Tail Walking and Kyelin did a great job directing at the Marshall point. As Run Director it makes our role so much easier having wonderful volunteers like we have at Bannockburn Bush parkrun.
Julie Arnall, Kyelin Tenace, Levi Stapleton, Luke Blackley, Nicole Wilks, Ollie Stapleton, Paige Wilks, Paul Ashley, Sara Dixon, Tamara Sanders, Tori Stapleton.
With the blessing of local RSL members, we will be running our event next week on ANZAC Day.
See you next week.

Let’s talk about parkrun milestones
Official parkrun milestones are reached at the following run/walk numbers or even the number of times you have volunteered
They are even colour coded as follows –
10 for Juniors - white
25 – purple
50 - red
100 - black
250 - green
500 – blue
At Bannockburn Bush parkrun we love a good celebration
However, sometimes we are not always aware when someone is reaching any particular milestone so if you would like to message us during the week before parkrun day, we have a chance to look up your stats and expand the celebration
If you prefer to fly under the radar and not celebrate then that is totally fine too
As always, we look forward to seeing you on Saturday

Bannockburn Bush parkrun Event #378

It was a cold, but thankfully dry morning out at parkrun this morning. It really is wonderful to see the community coming together and, quite literally, take positive steps together!

Today we welcomed 5 brand new people to parkrun: Indra, Kristen, Moi, Darren and Sarah and 6 additional people to Bannockburn Bush parkrun specifically. Hopefully we’ll see you all again soon.

There were some Milestones celebrated: Congratulations to Spencer who completed his 25th parkrun with a 1st place finish, and to Brent and Bec, who also completed their 25th. Congratulations to Jo and Brent who completed their 10th parkrun.

In a field of 92, there were 16 people who achieved a pb. Fabulous work to all of you! A very well done to: Bethany, Thomas, Remi, Ali, Hannah, Maree, Mietta, Bruce, Grace, David, Wayne, Peter, Angus, Annie, Colin, and Owen.
