Junior parkrun is a free, fun, friendly, weekly, community event organised by volunteers of all ages for children aged 4 to 14.
The 2k junior parkrun events take place every Sunday morning at 9am in the UK, Ireland and Australia. It is a great introduction for all the family to be physically active outside together on the weekend. Walk, jog, run, volunteer or spectate with us, taking part is easy and it’s for everyone!
Your local event is Barking junior parkrun. A 2-lap course all on paths, all flat terrain. The start line is near the Splash Zone doing a small clockwise loop then 2 anticlockwise loops around the east side of the park (side closest to Barking Abbey School), finishing back near the entrance of the Splash Zone. You can find out more on the Barking junior parkrun website.
