I Ran Sydney's BIGGEST Parkrun (700+ Runners Every Week) | The Ponds Parkrun Review

The Ponds Parkrun review. Everything you need to know before you run it. Part of the Sydney Parkrun Challenge — I'm running all 36 Sydney parkruns and reviewing every single one. This week I turned up to Sydney's biggest parkrun with 700 people and somehow managed to get in everyone's way. The Ponds Parkrun is a free weekly 5K held every Saturday at 8:00am at The Ponds Community Hub, Riverbank Drive, The Ponds NSW 2769. It's a flat out-and-back course on sealed paths alongside Second Ponds Creek. The largest attended parkrun in Sydney — regularly drawing 700+ runners — and surprisingly easy to run despite the crowd.
