Lalor parkrun
Description
Lalor parkrun is a free, timed, 5km run / walk put on by the community for the community at 8am every Saturday morning in Lalor, Victoria. parkrun is not a race against other runners, but a 5km timed run, jog or walk. It can really be whatever you want it to be, whether that's for fun or as part of a training plan.
Lalor parkrun offers an opportunity for all members of our local community, male or female, young or old, to come together on a regular basis to enjoy our beautiful gardens and get physically active in the process. We want to encourage people to walk, jog or run together irrespective of their ability – this event is truly open to all and best of all it really is FREE!
Taking part is easy – just register in advance by 6pm on the Friday before your first ever parkrun event. The great thing is that you only ever need to do this once! Then just set your alarm for Saturday morning and get yourself there!

We currently have a small but under control grass fire burning on the western side of our course. The freeway is currently closed. We are unsure at this stage if its jumped the fwy or if there has been any damage to High 5 Bridge. We will inspect at first light tomorrow and post an update as soon as possible!
