We were so happy to welcome 25 new people who came to run, jog, or walk at Nansenparken parkrun this week - and 15 of them have never done a parkrun before!

We also had tourists from both New Zealand and Poland visit our parkrun for the first time.

It was extra exciting to have many new people join us after being inspired by running Fornebuløpet (the local 3K, 5K, and 10K race). Doing parkrun is a great way to keep up the motivation between the yearly race!

We were also a good group who joined at the cafe after parkrun for some "parkfaffing" and a "post-parkrun brew". It is so nice to get to know one another outside of parkrun as well.
