What is (Kralingse Bos) parkrun?
Parkrun is the world’s largest organisation of weekly free running events. More than 10 million people have signed up for parkrun, and 350,000 people in 23 countries around the world take part in one of the 2,500 parkruns organised every week. The concept of parkrun is simple: running, jogging or walking a 5km course in a park with others. At parkrun, the social aspect of bringing people together is just as important as getting people physically moving. parkrun is run entirely by volunteers.
First taking place on 29 February 2020, the Kralingse Bos parkrun is part of this international parkrun movement that began in London in 2004. This year we celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Feelgood Movement. Since the start of the Kralingse Bos parkrun, more than 3,500 participants have crossed the finish line more than 11,400 times, with the help of more than 220 volunteers. Kralingse Bos parkrun contributes to getting Rotterdammers moving on a weekly basis. All info at Home | Kralingse Bos parkrun | Kralingse Bos parkrun.
