Organizer: runday
Weekly 5-kilometre timed runs in Ukraine.
runday events are free to enter and open to everyone and because all race results are recorded online you can monitor your progress or compete with your friends.
runday was inspired by a British movement called parkrun which began in Autumn 2014 when 13 runners met in Bushy Park, Teddington. Since then the movement has grown into an international family of almost two million registered members and volunteers.
Sadly, parkrun weren’t interested in Ukraine (too busy apparently) so we decided to do it ourselves and do it better “Be the change you want to see” and all that stuff…
Our races are free, public events run by volunteers. There are no age or fitness restrictions so you can run like the wind or take a maintain a lighter pace to enjoy the distance. The main thing is that you enjoy yourself and stay healthy.
We welcome experienced runners and professional athletes but, we our most proud of members who started running because of our events.
