A POPULAR parkrun in Bracknell will be celebrating its third birthday this weekend.

Run by volunteers every week the Bracknell parkrun, held at Great Hollands recreation ground, was set up in 2015 to encourage local people to take up running in a relaxed and friendly environment.

Every Saturday morning, runners of all speeds and abilities walk, jog or run their way round a 5km course in the park in a non-competitive atmosphere.

This Saturday, April 7, the movement will be celebrating its third anniversary, so the organisers are encouraging local people to come along and have a go.

The run kicks off at 9am on Saturday. To find out more about parkrun and to sign up for free, visit www.parkrun.org.uk.
