Who:
All walkers, runners and volunteers are welcome!
What:
Como Park parkrun event #38!!!
Where: At Lakeside Pavilion at Como Park. You can also do a quick Google map search for 'Como Park parkrun' to take you to the starting point. After turning into the parking lot, look for a parkrun banner and a bunch of folks wearing reflective vests.
Jeremy is going to be run directing.
Oh, and they also have heated restrooms near the starting area.
When:
The start will be held on Saturday, May 23rd,, 2026 at 9:00 - and the event repeats every Saturday, but please arrive a few minutes before to catch the run director's briefing.
If you are a first-timer, please arrive at around 8:45 or earlier to attend the first timer's briefing. Also, we will be able to explain and answer any questions you may have.
If you are celebrating something special - like a birthday, or a parkrun-related milestone, showing up early will allow us to better help you to celebrate it.
Additionally, if you are either a first timer to parkrun or to Como park parkrun, you may want to come early to learn more. This will give us an opportunity to welcome you.
If the unexpected happens --- bad weather etc, we may postpone the event a week. We will do our best to provide as much advanced notice as possible on both the Parkrun website and this Facebook event and page.
Why:
Because it is a great way to get healthy, meet new friends and spend a Saturday morning.
Parkrun is a volunteer-led, free to participate weekly timed 5 kilometer walk/run. It isn't a race, and it is talent neutral. Afterwards, we will meet at Dock & Paddle (a nearby coffee shop) for treats and time processing. In addition to getting a drink, they also now serve breakfast!
Just register once at parkrun.us to get your personal barcode, then you can take part at any parkrun around the world.
Bring your barcode, bring a friend, and come join the fun.
