  1. As this feature clearly conveys, Parkrun is for people of all ages, shapes, sizes and fitness levels. It is for walkers, those with dogs, prams, kids or kids on the way – everyone can be involved! Seriously addictive and seriously fun! Watch out drug companies! Parkrun is changing people’s health and wellbeing!!!!

  2. Brilliant piece. I take park in parkrun in the UK, Temple Newsam in Leeds. I have attended parkrun for a couple of years now. The atmosphere is brilliant, everyone is so supportive and I have met lots of people through it. it is very encouraging to see people of all ages taking park, from barely toddlers to people in their 80’s.
