The people of Monmouth are being encouraged to get out, get walking, and get talking at their local Chippenham Playing Fields parkrun this weekend on Saturday 26 April at 9am and be part of the biggest walking weekend ever at parkrun.

‘Let’s Walk’ day is a nationwide initiative by parkrun and headline partner Vitality to celebrate the simple, yet powerful act of walking at parkrun and Chippenham Playing Fields parkrun wants you to join them.

“We invite everyone to come along and start their weekend by walking at Chippenham Playing Fields parkrun this weekend. Bring your family and friends with you! If you want to run or volunteer you can do that too - it’ll be the same parkrun experience we enjoy every weekend, but hopefully with a few more walkers!”

Core team, Chippenham Playing Fields.

Parkrun is a free, weekly community event that takes place every Saturday morning at 9am and anyone can walk, jog, run, volunteer, or simply come along and cheer others on.

The emphasis is on inclusivity, not speed, and walking has always been an important part of the parkrun experience

‘Let’s Walk’ at parkrun is all about making that welcoming environment even more visible, so whether you're looking to add more movement to your week, meet new people, or just enjoy a walk in the fresh air, this Saturday at Chippenham Playing Fields parkrun is the perfect chance to start.
