Overview
Griffeen parkrun is a series of 5k events at 9:30am every Saturday and junior events for 4-14 years at 9:30am every Sunday at Griffeen Park.
Volunteers are fundamental to the delivery of all events, and carry out roles such as setting up the event, marshaling, timekeeping, scanning, handing out finish tokens or tail walking, to name just a few. We encourage each event to have as many volunteers as they can and to never turn down an offer from someone to volunteer. A course can never have too many Marshals and multiple Tail Walkers can make the event even more fun! Volunteers are welcome to be accompanied by their children; however, volunteers may find themselves in challenging situations, so volunteers must be mindful of this at all times.
