Running and endurance is at the core of pretty much all team sports. We are very lucky to have so many options in South West London for children to get involved.
There are 3 junior parkruns that take place in the borough. 2 of them are every Sunday and one is held once a month. It is a free, fun, and friendly 2k event for juniors (4 to 14 year olds). Moormead junior parkrun (Twickenham) is held every Sunday at 9am. Latchmere Red Junior parkrun (Ham) is held every Sunday at 9am. Bushy Park Junior parkrun (Teddington) is held on the first Sunday of the month at 9am.
