About this special parkrun event
Parkrun Fredric Back begins at 9:30 am. We meet in the TOHU (sphere shaped building in the park between 9:00 and 9:15).
Invite your family, friends, and pooches to dress up as ocean creatures for this specially themed Ocean Week Canada walk/run! We encourage you to make your costumes out of items you have at home.
Don’t want to run, jog or walk? Why not volunteer? Volunteering at parkrun is a hugely positive experience, and is a form of participation that is inclusive, respected, and accessible to everyone.
There are 43 parkruns across the country. Check here for a parkrun near you!
