Parkrun is a free, weekly community event where you can walk, jog, run, volunteer or simply cheer others on!
If running a 5k on a Saturday morning is your thing, you’re in the right place to find out more.
Burradon Farm is in a super‑central location in North Tyneside, giving you easy access to a fantastic choice of local parkruns.
