About this listen

Now you can listen to parkrun magazine.

We want to make parkrun magazine accessible to as many people as possible, so in addition to the print version, we’ve created a free audiozine too. It’s perfect for listening to on the way to work, in quiet moments or while you’re out and about walking, jogging or running – basically, any way that suits you. It costs nothing to download.

Each episode of the audio magazine contains a selection of stories and features adapted from the print edition all about getting started on a more active lifestyle, plus hints and tips about becoming healthier and happier. You’ll also find plenty of stories about the communities around parkrun events.

We’ve broken down each magazine into a six-episode series, so you can listen in short bursts when you have free time, or you prefer to “binge” and catch up with a whole magazine in one go. Of course, you can rewind and pause the audiozine, too – which could be really helpful if you’re cooking along with some of the recipes!
