After several weeks of wind and rain, we were very lucky to have the sun come out from behind the clouds for Nansenparken parkrun's 2nd birthday! This lovely parkrunday, filled with joy and party spirits from our participants and volunteers, truly made this birthday unforgettable!

A fantastic group of 61 parkrunners joined us in the celebration, with a good mix of regulars and visitors from the other Oslo parkruns. Many thumbs up and hands in the air were captures by the photographer, but the true celebratory spirit was something you had to be there to experience. Just look at some of the gorgeous faces captured this week!

16 people made their Nansenparken parkrun debut on our birthday, and were met with applause and a proper parkrun welcome!

One of our juniors reached his 10-milestone this week, and was cheered on all throughout our course by both parkrunners and volunteers. We also had 9 people recording a new Personal Best this week. Congratulations!

We had two tourists visiting us from Liverpool this week, thank you for joining us!

A few members of our core team joined in the celebration this week, smiling in the selfie frame with flags and balloons. Linn and Elizabeth also brought cake and cookies for the occasion.

We had a great team of volunteers this week, who made sure our birthday celebration went smoothly. They cheered loudly on our participants, and made sure to celebrate each and every one as they crossed the finish line. Without them, this week's parkrun would not have happened, so thank you so much to this fabulous team! The event was made possible by 6 fantastic volunteers:

Elizabeth ACKLAM • Liam TURNER • Linn Jenssen ACKLAM • Ada Jenssen ACKLAM • Michael RICANEK • Sigrid RICANEK

This week, Nansenparken parkrun not only had another fantastic event, but we also had several of our regulars doing the Oslo marathon the same day! With many regulars gone, we were very happy to see many new faces, as well as several familiar ones on our gorgeous course.

We had 34 participants running, jogging, and walking in the park, with many happy parkrunners smiling, waving, and jumping with joy for the camera.

Of the 34 participants this week, 8 were first timers. It is a great joy to be able to meet new people in such a welcoming place!

After last week's "PB weather", this week's weather allowed for yet another impressive group of 10 people to record new Personal Bests. Well done all!

We had two tourists from England visiting us this week, of which one spontaneously donned a light blue vest and joined the volunteer team as our parkwalker! We are so happy to promote walking at parkrun, as we are always in need of more walkers. Thank you to our lovely parkwalker, and thank you both for visiting us!
