Doing your first parkrun
- 1 Register once at parkrun.ie. It is free, and takes a couple of minutes.
- 2 Print your barcode, or save it to your phone. Without it you will run but not get a time — and every parkrunner has forgotten it at least once.
- 3 Turn up about fifteen minutes early. There is a first-timers briefing at most events, and it is worth going to.
- 4 Run, jog or walk the 5K. There is a tail walker at the back whose job is to finish last, so you cannot come in alone at the end.
- 5 Get your finish token scanned with your barcode, and your time arrives by email later that morning.
The same barcode works at every parkrun in the world, forever. Verus is not affiliated with parkrun — these listings are compiled from parkrun's own public events data.
