If you are looking for something active to do for FREE every Saturday this is for you! I am not a fan of running especially alone. This event is a great way to meet other active enthusiasts. Even if you aren’t a runner like myself they say everyone is welcome. You can walk, jog, run or even volunteer.
What is Exploration Place parkrun?
