The snow has melted away quite early this year. We may get the occasional snow flurry, but I would hope that weather related cancellations are not going to be an issue again until next winter.

Dry conditions and an ice-free route saw our best attendance of the year so far (42) at the world's northernmost #parkrun 🇫🇮

22 at Pokkinen #parkrun this morning. Much of the snow has now melted, so hopefully no more weather-related cancellations from now on.

No #parkrun at Pokkinen today. Parts of the route are blocked by meltwater.

Back at Pokkinen #parkrun after a four week break due to ice and seriously cold temperatures. More than 20 participants joined us to run on freshly fallen snow.

51 at Pokkinen #parkrun today, with a good number from the UK. Was nice to be able to run two weeks consecutively. Too warm for me to set a fast time, but enjoyable nonetheless.

A decent attendance of 59 at Pokkinen #parkrun yesterday. About a third were visitors from the UK

A wet morning didn't deter the runners, joggers, and walkers at Pokkinen #parkrun today.

First time this year at Pokkinen #parkrun without a coat! Visitors from 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 and 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 filled some of the gaps left by regulars competing at a local race.

#run #runchat #oulu #suomi #finland

Welcome! Hope it is the first of many.

A wet and cold morning (+2°C) saw a big fall in numbers at Pokkinen #parkrun today. Nevertheless, a respectable number of Finns and one 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 tourist came to brave the conditions.
