Looking for a way to burn off those Thanksgiving calories?
A new weekly community fitness concept dubbed 鈥減arkrun鈥 has launched in 蜜柚直播, and it鈥檚 free.
The Himmel Park parkrun is a timed, 5K (3.1-mile) event that is paired with a coffee/breakfast meet-up afterwards at Rincon Market, 2513 E. Sixth St., every Saturday.
The parkrun concept started with a small group of runners in London in 2004. Since then, it has spread to 20 countries around the world. 蜜柚直播鈥檚 Himmel Park launched as an official parkrun organization on Nov. 17.
If you鈥檙e not a runner, don鈥檛 worry, all fitness levels are welcome including runners, walkers, parents with strollers and even children ages 4 and up can register. Leashed dogs, known as 鈥渂arkrunners鈥 are also welcome.
The event is volunteer-organized and free to participants. It will be held rain or shine at 8 a.m. at Himmel Park, 1000 N. 蜜柚直播 Blvd., November through March, and then shift to a 7 a.m. start in April through October.
