Edgbaston Reservoir parkrun is now officially 5 years old!!
Our first event took place on 14th August 2021. Since then almost 20,000 people have completed our 5km course, as visitors or regulars (thankfully not all on the same day), and collectively clocked up 330,000km. Thanks to the many hundreds of you who have volunteered your time to help make it happen (almost) every Saturday.
Here's to the next 5 years!!

The reservoir is back to its calm self after an incredible 705 parkrunners completed the course this morning! Wow, breaking records and exhausting our stock of finish tokens. It was great to see so many smiling faces before and afterwards. Perhaps unsurprisingly there were a few issues with the results, so if your result is missing or wildly inaccurate, email us and we'll try to sort it [email protected]

Well that was another busy one!

Huge thank you to all the volunteers who helped this morning, couldn't have done it without you. Well done to all 526 who participated this morning.

If you accidentally picked up a phone this morning that isn't yours, please get in touch so we can help return it to its owner.
