Summary
The CIOB 5K Run/Walk is a new global initiative designed to get the construction community moving together. Open to staff and members of all abilities, as well as colleagues, family and friends, it brings people across the sector into a shared programme of weekly activity, building towards a collective 5k event on 3 October.
Whether you’re an experienced runner, prefer a steady walk, or are starting from scratch, the initiative provides a structured and supportive way to get involved. Through our partnership with parkrun, participants can join free, timed 5k events each week around the world.
By registering with the CIOB parkrun Club, you can track your progress and see how you’re contributing to a growing global community in the lead-up to October.
- Feel better, physically and mentally: Movement is one of the simplest, most effective ways to boost wellbeing. And doing it together makes it even better.
- Make a real difference: We’re encouraging all participants to fundraise for CIOB Assist, helping members and their families through financial difficulties.
- Build global connection: Coming together to run and walk reminds us that we’re part of a world-wide community.
