Saturday morning events are 5k and take place in parks and open spaces. parkrun is a positive, welcoming and inclusive experience where there is no time limit and no one finishes last. Everyone is welcome to come along, whether you walk, jog, run, volunteer or spectate. Since October 2022, parkwalk is also being promoted.
