In February 2019 my wife and I introduced my 93-year-old uncle to parkrun and its now his favourite Saturday morning adventure.
His home course is North Sydney and they are so accommodating and friendly to Adrian, he even has a coffee afterwards with them and assists with the token sorting.
His PB at Nth Sydney is 49:37 and at Penrith Lakes he has a PB of 47:23. He likes going to different parkrun venues as he usually gets a course record for his age group, 90-94 years.
