Fancy jazzing up your exercise regime? Bringing the local community together (as well as visitors from all over the world), parkrun is a global, weekly, free and sociable 5k event that takes place every Saturday morning.
If you’re now experiencing flashbacks of the days of school and stitch-inducing cross country, rest assured, it’s nothing like that. The beauty of parkrun is that no matter how fast or slow you want to take it, you can participate at your own leisure…there is no time frame or bossy PE teacher for that matter! And, when you’re done, many of the parkrun events have hot refreshment facilities, so you can enjoy a well-deserved brew and brekkie afterwards.
Sound like something you’d like to get on board with? There are a couple of parkrun spots close by to get you started, including York, New Earswick, Heslington, and Selby. So, whether you’re a novice runner, a competitive racer, a walker, hopper, or skipper, register at www.parkrun.org.uk now! On your marks Yorkshire…
