Buckingham Junior ParkRun welcomes back young runners from Sunday

It's been a year or more of bleakness for ParkRun, with the return of adults' events delayed by three weeks.

But there's good news for speedy under-10s, as Buckingham Junior ParkRun is back from Sunday (30/5).

Bucks Council and Buckingham Town Council have given the thumbs-up for the free 2k event to start again in Bourton Park.

But there are changes to note.

Usually, the run is open to anyone aged 4-14 - but due to Covid-19 restrictions, the upper age limit has been lowered to 10.
