The pastime, which sees people take part in a 5k run - or walk - on a weekend is going strong nearly 11 years after the first race was held.
Parkrunners from South Tyneside have turned out in all weathers and here are some great photos from the Shields Gazette archives to show their dedication.
Enjoy!
