πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ Meet Lara β€” your Fun Run Section Manager!

Lara Cu***ng is heading up the Bellingen Show Fun Run this year, and she brings serious credentials: she runs, she competes in the adult colouring competition (third place last year, thank you very much 🎨), AND she's out to redeem herself in the Partner Carry after being dropped on the final turn πŸ˜‚

The Fun Run kicks off on Sunday 10 May with start times at 7am and 7:30am β€” and there's something for everyone.

The 10km winds through rolling countryside with killer hills and mountain views.
The 3km is perfect for walkers, beginners, and seasoned runners alike (yes, adults too β€” it's not just for kids!).

Both finish with a sprint into the Showground, and the atmosphere is something else.

Lara says it best: "The Fun Run has some challenging hills β€” so start training now!"

One half of our favourite couple is (finally lol) notching up his 50th vollie credit this Saturday - and it would be super amazing to have a large crowd of parkrunners on hand to congratulate him on this incredible milestone πŸ˜€ You are a legend Ollie πŸ€—

So please come down and join us this Saturday morning at the Urunga lido - between the play area and toilet block.

We won! πŸ₯³πŸŽ‰

Thanks to our wonderful Urunga parkrun community. This is your award and a nod to all the amazing people who make it happen. Just to name a few: Matt Heaney (co- Event Director and results processing wizard), John Manson who faithfully cares for our equipment and the phenomenal Mili McLaughlin who is our greatest advocate and passionate parkrunner. There are many more and we are so lucky to have you.

We will try to find somewhere close to our parkrun course to plant our beautiful native frangipani. Thank you Bellingen Shire Council for acknowledging our contribution to this beautiful community.

(I was a bit overwhelmed to speak last night so saying it here.)
