We are a free, family-friendly 5K run/walk held every Saturday morning at Joe Creason Park in Louisville, KY. Learn more: https://www.parkrun.us/joecreason/
Thanks to everyone who came out and tackled 5K with us this morning. We had 58 runners and walkers and 10 of you walked back up the hill with new personal bests.

Don’t forget we’re hosting our 5th annual Thanksgiving parkrun this Thursday. Same time, same place, same entry fee.

In spite of the rainy week we've had, it looks like Saturday is going to be perfect for our first ever Tutu Day! (Well, not counting parking issues.) Wear your favorite tutu or borrow one of ours (arrive early for best selection)!

When the 22nd falls on a Saturday, we wear tutus. And this week, Run Director Christina is once again putting a Swiftie spin on it. Run/walk/jog/volunteer/vibe, just don't forget your frills. Meet us at the bottom of the hill at 8:45 if it's your first time. Learn more here: parkrun.us/joecreason

We’re looking for a few volunteers to support us as we put on 3 events over the next 11 days. This Saturday we need a timekeeper and marshal for tutu day. We could use a few extra marshals and scanners on Thanksgiving and then we need almost a full roster on Sat 11/29.

What a morning! We welcomed 74 runners and walkers to Louisville’s favorite free weekly 5K. 14 first-timers joined the fun including tourists from 🇩🇪 , the 🇬🇧 and 🇨🇦 .

So many speedy runners came out too. We had 31 runners finish sub 30:00 and 12 under 23:00! Well done!

We’re so happy for our friends at Roosevelt Island parkrun in Washington who have been on pause while the federal government has been shut down. 7 weeks with no parkrun. Welcome back!

We're just 2.5 weeks from Thanksgiving parkrun. If you have family in town, bring them out for the free-est, friendliest way to kick off your Thanksgiving Day. No t-shirt, no medal, no entry fee. Come as you are and take as long as you need. Hope to see you there!

We were joined this morning by some junior runners at Klondike Lane elementary and some of them even finished the whole 5K 👀 Thanks to everyone for coming out!

61 runners and walkers had their barcodes scanned and we didn’t lose a single finish token. Amazing effort by our volunteer team today.

The weather is looking sublime for Joe Creason #304 this Saturday at 9. Run/walk/jog/volunteer/vibe. And no credit card required to ride this train. 🚂

Meet us at the bottom of the hill at 8:45 if it’s your first time. And bring your dog. They’ll love parkrun guaranteed or your money back!

Thanks to all 41 runners and walkers who joined us on Saturday. We had overcast skies and some drizzle that came out of nowhere. But that didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits. In fact, we were pleased by how many folks stuck around and yapped in the rain. We love to see it!

A brilliant morning for a parkrun. Our 300th to be exact. Thanks to everyone who answered the bell and started their weekend off right with fresh air and friends.

Just 2 more days until our 300th free weekly 5K. We hope to see you and yours for what looks to be the nicest Saturday morning we’ll have in 2025. 52 and sunny? You’d be a fool to sleep in! Grab a friend and your favorite morning beverage and we’ll see you at the bottom of the hill at 8:45 😎🌳🚶‍♀️

This. I’m planning to be there! I mean, I did 100 and 200, so might as well continue the trend. If you want to join me, the run/jog/walk starts at 9, down near the creek on the Trevilian side.

Supposed to be cool and sunny. Don’t miss one of the three days of fall we’re supposed to have this year.
In a little less than a month (Oct 11) we'll be hosting our 300th free weekly 5K! We've been providing Louisville a free, regular, hassle-free way to get together and get a little exercise since April 2018. We'd love to have a huge crowd that morning so tell all friends and make plans to join us!
