With A Walk In The Park Now - shush about the swoosh

Want to listen? Just do it as naughty Nike's controversy gets airtime. Whangarei parkrun says a beautiful goodbye to Colin Thorne, the eldest parkrunner in the World. Josh Wishicombe does his first parkrun. Nicola ups her p-Index to 14 at Pontefract and Danny points the way to Holme Pierrepont parkrun in Nottingham.

It's a long one! Or at least that's what Danny tells himself. We have Monopoly lies and delays, dangerous throws, scars, record birds, new parkrun Global Trustees, belated birthdays, returning Facebook pages, Heart Radio campaigns, double parkrun influencers, Lidl carbon boingings, The Two Cheryls, Sydney Harbour ferries, record Easter figures and Christmas icebergs, hidden Harrogate children, a Fab Gentle 50th, plus Danny brings two windy coastal profiles, from Newborough Forest parkrun in Anglesey and Walton Promenade parkrun in Essex.

This is not an April Fool. It's got junior parkrun outreach feedback, wrestling reference appreciation, London Marathon's double day impacts, questions of stats, Nicola micro-profiles Fell Foot parkrun in the Lake District and Danny pets the goodest boy Jeff at Vermuyden Way parkrun in North Lincolnshire.

Danny is joined direct from Cape Town, South Africa by Bev and Nigel for this week's episode! There's news about parkrun Austria cancelling their Extra Day, parkrun Monopoly passes go (but not a proof read), the WWF encourages us all to wear it wild and turn it off, plus there's how you can warmdown through three countries. We hear about Bev and Nigel's extraordinary trip to Zandvlei parkrun and Danny welcomes in a new member of the 500 Club at Downs Link parkrun, Shoreham-by-Sea.

Trains. A milking of puns. Record juniors and Norway's sporting culture. parkrun UK have gone to Specsavers. Nicola takes Poppy to Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School parkrun (aka QEGS) in Lincolnshire to finish her alphabet and Danny crops up at Frank's Farm parkrun in Cambridgeshire.

More dinosaur pronunciation. Ornithology. Dolly on tour. Akrotiri parkrun understandably pauses. Nicola visits the saplings at York Community Woodland parkrun and Danny succesfully gets to Kilkenny Lane Country parkrun in Oxfordshire.

Dinosaurs! Bushy juniors goes fortnightly! Comms opinions! Twits! Nicola regales us with her great adventure to parkrun Malaysia at Presint 18 parkrun, Putrajaya and Danny twits about in Watford at Holywell King George V Playing Fields parkrun.

Cat context, Tesla's genius, forgotten beaches, witty puns, bot-acular weekend struggles, results page changes, the 5k app gets a shiny and official makeover, Austria gets an extra day, Bev and Nigel party in tunnels overseas and Danny facilitates a discount parkrun visit whilst he pops back to Walmer and Deal Seafront parkrun after eight years.

It's full of love this week! All the Valentine's things! There's ogols, ninjas, M25 facts, A12000000, pop-up puns, a record attendance, Bev and Nigel didn't parkrun, and Danny had an enchanting time at the beautiful Highcliffe Beach parkrun in Dorset.

Join us! Cult members Danny and Nic Nic talk viral vids, AI impacts, paused events, chip butties, Danny rages about turtles and they're both very excited for future travels.
