About us
We organise free weekly timed 5km events all over Australia. parkrun is a beautifully simple concept: turn up every Saturday and run or walk 5km. It doesn’t matter how fast you go. It doesn’t matter what you’re wearing. What matters is taking part. There are parkrun events in every state and territory of Australia. Each event is based in a unique location like a park, beach, trail or promenade. All events are organised by a group of our wonderful dedicated volunteers. parkrun is all about inclusiveness and wellbeing. We want as many people as possible to feel part of a real local community brought together by our events, as well as our global parkrun family. It’s why parkruns are never more than 5km – it’s a distance that anyone can complete, either running or walking, or a combination of both. And it’s why we’ve kept the format of parkrun so simple: register once, then turn up and take part wherever you want, whenever you want. www.parkrun.com.au
