Remember that any plan is only a guide, so please do go at your own comfortable pace. Go on you can keep it going we heading into the home stretch now...

WEEK SIX

Welcome to week 6️⃣ of #Parkwalk πŸŽ‰ 
Not started your strive for five journey yet?
Absolutely no problem πŸ’ͺ 


* 15 Minutes of walking every other day
(Still doesn't have to be done in one go)

* + A 40 minute or approx 3k of continuous walking (Alternating 7 mins of faster paced walking and 3 minutes easy pace) once a week.


Just for fun

A seahorse moves at an average of 0.015km per hour. Moving at this speed, it would take the seahorse 333 hours, 20 mins to complete a 5k parkrun

COVID-19 (Coronavirus) update February

COVID_FEB_WEEK_3_NEWSLETTER copy

The coming weeks and months are likely to prove critical as the world strives to overcome the continued challenges presented by COVID-19.

 

Unfortunately, whilst Australia and New Zealand have so far successfully prevented significant levels of infection, both countries are currently experiencing regional lockdowns in response to localised outbreaks. In South Africa, thankfully, cases are dropping rapidly, however the country is still under a significant level of restrictions. And in the northern hemisphere countries that host parkrun events, whilst the vaccine roll-out is progressing, the point at which large public gatherings may resume is far from clear.

 

Next week, the UK Prime Minister will set out his road map for the gradual easing of restrictions and a return to normal life. Clearly, this announcement will have significant implications for the reopening of parkrun across our 1,100 UK locations, and we very much hope that there will be a place for outdoor physical activity events as the country gets back on its feet.
