parkrun is a free, timed 5k run or walk that takes place every Saturday morning at 9am, open to anyone, of any ability, and entirely run by volunteers.
Worthing's event meets on the seafront promenade near Splashpoint, in front of the listed Beach House mansion at the edge of Beach House Park, with the route heading out along the flat, paved promenade — making it a popular, sociable and very achievable 5k for regulars and complete beginners alike.
Registration is free and only needs doing once — search "parkrun" online to register and print or save your barcode before your first run. Juniors can take part in the separate weekly junior parkrun events aimed at 4 to 14 year olds, usually held on Sunday mornings.
Whether you're chasing a personal best or just after a sociable Saturday morning walk by the sea, it's one of the easiest ways to get moving in Worthing — see also our exercise and fitness pages for more on staying active.
