Parkrun anybody this Saturday? (Preston Park)

GoodGym loves parkruns!

It possibly goes without saying, but parkrun really isn’t about running at all - despite it’s name - it’s really about community cohesion, wellbeing and the coming together of the community. Pretty much like Good-Gym!

We are spoilt for choice in Brighton and Hove with 5 parkruns across the city. Once a month, we meet up together and run or walk or volunteer at a different parkrun - proud to wear our red GoodGym T-shirt. Sometimes more often for spontaneous initiative of the Good Gymers in our area.

** Which one is your parkrun this week? **

I will be most likely running at Preston Park this week, to cheer Nicky's 100th parkrun achievement! However, I let you pick and choose which is your favorite 5km parkrun. Just don't forget to sign up here and post your photos on our whatsapp group!

Every km counts!

** New to parkruns?**

Parkruns are free, weekly, community events all around the world. Saturday morning events are 5k and take place in parks and open spaces. You can run, walk or volunteer at parkruns. You can even take your dog (if you have one) along! If you have never run a parkrun before, they are a great way to get into running in a welcoming and inclusive environment. Remember, it's FREE, but you can register HERE: https://www.parkrun.org.uk/register/ to keep a profile (number of parkruns you do, times, etc.).

If you want to get involved in volunteering at this parkrun, please follow the instructions and see which roles are available HERE

What to look out for

Make sure you've read our general guidelines for safety for taking part in any GoodGym session. Looking out for each other! GoodGym is a community and it's important we look out for each other's safety as well as our own.

Parkruns are events not organised by GoodGym and GoodGym takes no responsibility for your participation in the event. But, as responsible GoodGym-er we follow GoodGym Code of Conduct at our meet ups at any local parkrun.

REMEMBER to associate you parkrun profile to the group/club: GoodGym-Brighton :-)
