It's free. It's timed and it's every Saturday at 8am. Whether you’re a sprinter, a jogger or plodder, you’re welcome to join in the fun. The event starts and finishes near the Newcastle Rowers Club shed at Carrington (water end of Arnold St).

Once registered, you can print your personal barcode and bring it along each week to record a finish time. You can use the same barcode at any of the 800+ parkrun locations around the World or 165+ across Australia. But remember, no barcode, no result - ie: if you forget to bring a printed copy of your barcode, you can still participate but you will NOT record a finish time against your name. Arrive before 7.50am for a "first-timers" brief and we’ll give you the full “run” down in person. parkrun is totally free, but we ask that you volunteer at least 2-3 times per year.
