The Hazlehead parkrun sign on a path with grass, trees and bright blue sky.

Beautiful, sunny, cold day at parkrun.

People walk or jog along a path in a park, beneath a lovely blue sky. Two of the people wear orange hi-vis vests and one of them also wears a green tail.

My first time as tail walker at junior parkrun this morning. It was brilliant fartlek training 🤣

After a brief memorial, laz lit the cigarette at 6:00am. The 2026 Barkley Marathons has begun. #BM100

Try not to feel guilty. You’re keeping people safe, that’s the most important thing.

Blue sky, sun, trees, path. Sun casting shadows through trees.

Gorgeous conditions at Hazlehead this morning during my course check walk. Hoping it’s just as lovely at parkrun tomorrow.

An image showing Scotland with Aberdeen Airport marked and a sunny spell symbol

After 21 days without sunshine, Aberdeen recorded its first sunshine since 21st January this afternoon 😎

The joys of being a parkrun ED: when a minor course diversion means you need to step in as an extra marshal rather than do the 5K… so you can shelter under an umbrella guilt-free ☔️ 🤣

Confession time: I gave up when the score hit 15-0. Glad to hear the second half was better.

Best way to spend a Monday morning in January: go for a lovely sunny walk then come home, drink coffee and finish booking this summer’s 🇮🇪 holiday.

I’m a big fan. My home event is incredibly supportive of walkers, which certainly helps, but I’d definitely recommend you give it a go.

Two lovely walks yesterday and today. Fingers are now firmly crossed that the weather doesn’t scupper NYD parkrun tomorrow!

Looks like the New Year’s Day and 3rd January parkruns might be at risk 😢

I tried it yesterday. Really not keen. I’d rather have a chocolate orange and a glass of original Baileys.

Festive marshals (Santa and an elf, both wearing pink hi-vis over their costumes) with a giant bauble and the Hazlehead parkrun popup sign.

Hazlehead has finally beaten its previous record attendance, set on 1/1/20. 462 finishers today, up from 387 last Christmas Day and the previous record of 431. What a morning!
