Twenty-five volunteers turned up to support the launch of a new parkrun in Wisbech in which 129 took part.

Runners, joggers, and walkers were at Wisbech Park for the first “free, fun, and friendly 5k community event”.

The parkrun will be held each Saturday at 9am.

Participants are encouraged to walk, jog, or run at a pace that suits them. A separate 2k junior parkrun, suitable for ages 4 to 14 years old, also takes place every Sunday.

Cllr Alex Miscandlon, Fenland District Council’s portfolio holder for leisure said: “Exercising in a group setting like parkrun not only boosts physical health but also creates a supportive community where individuals thrive together, fostering motivation and a sense of belonging that lasts far beyond the finish line.”

“No matter where you are on your personal fitness journey or your ability level, you’ll find a supportive community to help you achieve your goals at your local parkrun.”

Those interested in joining for the first time are encouraged to register for free online and get their unique scannable barcode, which allows you to participate and receive a finish time.

Chairman of the council and joint event director of Wisbech parkrun Cllr Nick Meekins said: “Many hours of work and planning have gone into getting this inaugural event set up, so we’re absolutely thrilled that the first run has been such a huge success.”

“This event wouldn’t be possible without our wonderful volunteers, so we would greatly encourage anyone who is interested in helping out to step forward and join the team.”
