Racecourse regulars Rebecca and Sarah enjoyed their 5k adventure against a backdrop of pine trees in Vingis Park, the maiden course for the free event in Lithuania.
The route goes through a forest in the scenic recreation space popular with residents of the capital city Vilnius — as well as parkrun ‘tourists’ from further afield.
Sarah scored a personal best on Saturday morning, while Rebecca came home in a time of sub-27 minutes ‘for the first time in ages.’
Ninety-two people completed the 32nd instalment of the run, which took the free, timed community event to the Baltic country in September 2024.
‘It was a lovely run through fresh, lush Vingis park,’ Rebecca said of her 309th parkrun.
‘There was an untroubled two-lap route, some of which was an easy and pleasant downhill descent.
‘Parkrunners of different nationalities descended on the park’s cafes for replenishment afterwards.’
Meanwhile in Warwick, Josh and Jimmy were among 431 people who completed the racecourse ‘loop-back’ route around the golf course and nature reserves.
Jimmy scored a PB of 23:26, arriving home in 82nd place, while Josh was the 92nd person to enter the funnel with a time of 23:46.
