The Crane Park Parkrun is a 5km run for all ages and abilities that takes place every Saturday at 9am, attracting around 140 runners each week.

Runners meet at the Crane Park play area and outdoor gym and the run finishes on the north side of the river at the Ellerman Avenue Gate.     The 5km run is one and a half laps circular route around the River Crane that includes a bound gravel path and tarmac. More information about teh route is available here – www.parkrun.org.uk/crane/course/.

As with all parkruns, you are encouraged to register on the site to obtain a printed barcode that can be scanned at the end of the run giving you confirmed time, to check your progress over a period a time.

Parkrun is organised by a committed group of volunteers and they are always looking for route marshals and other people to help run the event.
