Poppy ran her first official parkrun on her fourth birthday. It therefore felt fitting that she would get run her Bushy parkrun Pilgrimage on the 20th birthday of parkrun. Following on from Event 1000 where over 6,000 parkrunners descended on Bushy park then we were suitably nervous that this (event 1,005) would be another event that was realistically far too big. However, we were pleasantly surprised!
The entire morning was wonderful! From the awards given out at the start, to the run itself, to the post-run parkfaff in the glorious sunshine. If you've not been to Bushy parkrun then it's definitely one to visit. Exploring the park the night before was utterly magical too.
Dans le Noir was also absolutely brilliant! I would definitely recommend this as a dining experience if you get the chance!
Huge thanks to Paul (PSH) for starting this wonderful movement that has shaped my Saturdays for the past 17 years and to all of the incredible volunteers who help make it happen. What an incredible weekend in London!
Happy 17th birthday Woodhouse Moor parkrun!
Happy 20th birthday Bushy parkrun!
Happy International parkrun Day everyone!
Here's to the next 20 years!
