I
had
the
most
incredible
experience
at
the
Delta
Park
5km
Parkrun,
and
I
can't
wait
to
share
my
enthusiasm
with
everyone!
As
the
first
Parkrun
I
ever
supported,
I
drove
all
the
way
from
Alberton
for
years,
and
let
me
tell
you,
it
was
worth
every
kilometer.
The
Delta
Park
5km
Parkrun
is
a
race
that
perfectly
blends
challenge
and
natural
beauty.
The
course
takes
you
on
a
journey
through
a
stunning
landscape
of
towering
trees,
and
you'll
find
yourself
crossing
quaint
little
bridges
that
add
to
the
charm
of
the
run.
One
thing
that
sets
this
event
apart
is
the
fantastic
team
of
volunteers
who
make
it
all
possible.
I
want
to
express
my
heartfelt
gratitude
to
them
because,
without
their
dedication,
there
would
be
no
event
at
all.
It's
a
true
testament
to
the
power
of
community
and
the
love
for
running.
A
huge
shoutout
goes
to
Discovery
Vitality
for
sponsoring
Parkruns
like
this
across
the
country.
Their
support
ensures
that
these
wonderful
events
remain
accessible
and
free
for
all,
and
for
Bruce
Fordyce
and
his
family
for
starting
Parkrun
in
South
Africa.
Now,
let's
talk
about
the
route.
The
5km
course
offers
a
variety
of
terrains
to
keep
things
interesting.
It
starts
fast
and
flat,
giving
you
a
chance
to
find
your
rhythm.
Then,
you'll
experience
an
exhilarating
downhill
sprint,
followed
by
a
challenging
climb
that
takes
you
to
the
halfway
point.
But
don't
worry,
it
flattens
out
towards
the
end,
allowing
you
to
finish
strong
with
a
sprint.
On
average,
you'll
find
around
780
runners
at
the
Delta
Park
5km
Parkrun,
creating
a
vibrant
and
energetic
atmosphere.
The
event
takes
place
every
Saturday
at
8am,
so
it's
the
perfect
way
to
kick
off
your
weekend.
In
summary,
the
Delta
Park
5km
Parkrun
is
a
hidden
gem
for
running
enthusiasts.
The
combination
of
natural
beauty,
a
welcoming
community
of
runners,
and
the
support
of
volunteers
and
sponsors
make
it
a
must
visit
event.
Whether
you're
a
seasoned
runner
or
just
starting
your
journey,
this
Parkrun
has
something
special
to
offer.
Plus,
the
fact
that
it's
free
to
enter
is
the
icing
on
the
cake.
Don't
miss
the
chance
to
experience
this
fantastic
event
for
yourself!
Kind
regards,
Shaun.
