Willoughby parkrun celebrated its 10th birthday on Saturday 7 November with 559 people crossing the line at Artarmon Reserve.
The birthday run was event number 462. There were 62 volunteers in hi-vis, 65 personal bests and 48 first timers. Current regulars ran alongside familiar faces from years gone by, then stayed on for food and plenty of chats.
Four regulars hit 100 parkruns on the day and one reached 200.
The free 5km event runs every Saturday at 7am. Walkers, joggers, runners and volunteers are all welcome. More than 14,000 different people have finished it over the past ten years.
