Who runs at parkrun?

The simple answer is anyone and everyone that wants to.

Head along to any parkrun and you will find people of all ages, sizes, backgrounds and abilities.

There are kids, teenagers, young adults, middle-aged, pensioners and even the elderly.
There are large people, thin people and every shape and size you can think of.
There are fast runners, slow runners and every grade of ability in between.
There are regular runners, even clubs runners, but the vast majority probably only run at parkrun.
Some of the runners aren't even runners, as walking is just as acceptable at parkrun.

There are even some who look like proper athletes!

As I said, parkrun is for everyone. Anyone is welcome at parkrun.
