Ballymount parkrun #9 saw another new run director makes his debut as Darren Bracken effortlessly guided 91 runners home today with the aid of 19 hi vis heroes on a drizzly but pleasant morning. Darren also ensures our website is up to date with plenty of photos and run reports so is a huge part of the team. He was so busy today we barely got pics of him! Thanks to all the volunteers - we were tight today so appeal to our local area to help us out whenever you can - it really is a great vibe ! Congrats again Darren - full run report to follow

Getting a new parkrun started is a huge team effort & we are blessed with the best. But we do need leaders to take on an extra bit of work and this week Jason Shalloe stepped up as run director. We had no doubt he’d nail it & indeed he did. With some backing from Darren , Grainne. , Nikita & our youngest and most consistent volunteer Max Jason flawlessly guided 91 runners home with the help of 24 volunteers . Full run report to follow later but well done Jason 🙌. Fancy seeing what all the fuss is about ? Join us next week to run or volunteer & dm us for deets. We still need volunteers & lots of them and are keen to train up more run directors & all other roles
