25. Horse Bachtal Parkrun: A solemn run with Easter flair!
run in Dortmund: Osterparkrun in the Pferdesbachtal
At the beginning of the Easter weekend, the 25th anniversary parish park took place in the horse brook valley, to which around 30 participants and eight helping hands came together to celebrate this special occasion. The event became a festive experience due to the presence of the Easter bunny, which provided the final participants.
The participation of “Easter tourists” from different cities, including Bielefeld, Bonn, Kassel, Leipzig and Nuremberg as well as guests from abroad, such as Finland and Austria was particularly gratifying. A very special visit was the boomerang 'R2-B2', which started his journey around the world and made his first stop in the Ruhr area as part of the parking in Dortmund after visiting various cities in Germany.
Before the regular start at 9 a.m., the participants were challenged with an entertaining quiz that rotated around the Parkrun horsebach valley. Here the participants had the opportunity to demonstrate their knowledge of past events and records and to gain small rewards. After the run, everyone could start looking for hidden Easter bunnies and terms in a digital Easter search game.
The running route was transformed into a rally rally, in which the participants could advise how many rabbits had hidden along the 5 km course. A chocolate bun was waiting for every real tip, which motivated some runners at personal best. At the end of the event there was a warm message from the Rome of the running manager who had forgotten that the 25th edition of Sabine Parkuns was also celebrated in Italy at the same time.
Overall, the participants of the Pferdbachtal Parkuns have already completed a total route of 3765 km in the first 25 editions. The next parking will take place next Saturday, and it is possible to enjoy the cherry blossom in the Rombergpark near the running route. The Pferdesbachtal Parkrun offers a free and entertaining opportunity every week to be active and experience nature.
