Parkrun is a free, weekly 5 km timed event for runners and walkers of all standards. It takes place every Saturday morning at South Bank’s Riverside Green. You can make Parkrun whatever you want it to be – improve your time for an upcoming competition, simply use it to help improve your fitness, or just make it a social occasion with friends. Participants can walk, jog or run.

Taking part is easy – just register on the official Parkrun website by 6:00 pm on the Friday before your first session and then turn up to the event as many times as you like. You only need to register once. For more information and enquiries, contact the Parkrun team on [email protected].
