24.01.2022 Congrats to Lani and Rohan who this morning became the first children to complete both Southport junior parkrun and Cannonvale junior parkrun giving them the unofficial title of 'Queensland junior statespeople'. Next stop has to be Westerfolds junior parkrun! Did your family make it to one of our junior parkrun locations this morning? How was it?

18.01.2022 We’re getting ready to launch a 12 month pilot of junior parkrun in Australia. junior parkrun will be 2k and held at 8am every Sunday for 4-14-year-olds. The first event will be on the Gold Coast. Requirements for volunteering are different to our 5k events. For our junior parkrun events, it is a requirement that all volunteers hold a valid working with children check (in QLD this is referred to as a bluecard).... If you’d like to get involved with the Gold Coast event, we’d love to hear from you NOW! Please email [email protected] if you can help with our Gold Coast event.

18.01.2022 This is absolutely beautiful and embodies the spirit we hope to convey to our children at Junior parkrun.

15.01.2022 In an effort to keep everything parkrun in one place, we're moving all of our junior parkrun Australia content over to parkrun Australia Follow us for updates on new events and when junior parkrun can safely resume. #loveparkrun

15.01.2022 Love this piece on Southport junior parkrun by the good folks at Kids on the Coast Magazine. "At a time when Australian parents are spending billions of dollars annually on kids sports and yet, kids are still overwhelmingly sedentary in their lifestyles, junior parkrun provides a pathway to regular physical activity and counteracts those cautionary tales of screen time overload, without the barrier of cost."

14.01.2022 Who is heading to juniors tomorrow? Southport? Westerfolds? or Cannonvale?

10.01.2022 Coming to AU in 2017...

10.01.2022 Why discourage kids who want to participate and be physically active? Any kid that wants to run should be allowed to." Thoughts?

08.01.2022 Last week we announced that we're launching a 12-month pilot program for junior parkrun in Australia. Today we're excited to reveal the locations of the first 3 events.
