There are two days in each year where events may stage events on days other than their normal day.
Since 25th December 2004, Bushy parkrun has held an event on Christmas Day and following this tradition, each country can nominate one special day per year on which they can stage events.

On January 1st we allow parkrunners to register two parkruns. Please also note that start times may differ from usual.
