The people of Wilmslow are being encouraged to get out, get walking, and get talking at their local parkrun this weekend on Saturday 26 April 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 Wilmslow parkrun wants you to join them.
Mandy Winckworth, Co-event director, Wilmslow parkrun said "We invite everyone to come along and start their weekend by walking at Wilmslow 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!"
parkrun is a free, weekly community event that takes place every Saturday morning 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.
Mandy Winckworth added "'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 Wilmslow parkrun is the perfect chance to start."
