parkrun

Back to Activities

parkrun is a free, fun, and friendly weekly 5k community event held in several South Cambs locations (Eddington, Elsworth, Fulbourn, Milton, Northstowe and Wimpole). Walk, jog, run, volunteer or spectate – it is not a race; there is no time limit and no-one finishes last.

This activity is good for wellbeing because

  • physical health is good for mental health;
  • it's a great way to meet new people;
  • getting outside and in the fresh air feels great.

What to expect

Every Saturday at 9am people of all ages and abilities pull on their trainers and walk, run, volunteer or spectate at parkruns. These friendly, volunteer run events are free to take part in but pre-registration via the parkrun website is essential before your first event.
