Countrywide natural experiment links built environment to physical activity - Nature By analysing the smartphone data of 2,112,288 participants, in particular observing and comparing the activity of the same individual in two different environments, we find that increases in the walka...

A cool natural experiment using cellphone data finds that, when people relocate to more walkable areas, they walk more and are more active. Why does this matter? Because many related studies were affected by self-selection bias, where people who like to walk might choose to live in walkable places

Reason to love #parkrun no 295

And finally โ€œEvery parkrun it's a pleasure just to be there and to do what I can on the day"
Please bear that in mind as you run round today. Just enjoy your parkrun.

Ed said Dave had told him โ€œparkrun has helped me regain my physical health, self-esteem and a sense of optimism"
"I'm a slow runner, so what? I have my achievements, my PBs. / can look back at where / was, and see where I am now, and feel actual pride"
