Pavilion Gardens Active Trails – 5k Route
The 2k and 5k route are the official parkrun and junior parkrun routes at Pavilion Gardens. These consist of two laps of the route for the 2k, and three laps of the 5k routes, to make up the distance of each, so you have the option of trying out one or two laps of these routes, either as a walk or jog whenever you choose, to familiarise yourself with the routes, or to use to begin to increase your fitness levels.
The Pavilion Gardens parkrun 5k event is held every Saturday, and starts at 9am. It is free to join in, you just need to register once with parkrun, and bring along your barcode. Please see this link for more details: Pavilion Gardens parkrun

The exercises are designed to work the major muscles in the upper and lower body, your core (including your lower back) whilst getting the blood and oxygen flowing round your heart and lungs. Incorporating functional exercises into your daily routine allows the entire body to work together to produce optimal movements.
Benefits: improved balance, better posture and coordination, increased strength, and decreased chance of injury.
