Our relaxed approach means that it doesn’t matter if it goes wrong. Even if you drop the finish tokens and the finish positions aren’t quite right, it’s not a disaster.

We understand that not everyone wants to walk, jog or run so we encourage a volunteer culture of always saying yes to anyone wanting to help out.

Just as being able to walk or run at parkrun is always an option whenever you need or want it, volunteering will always be there if and when you feel like it, too.
