It's Heating Up At Parkrun

By Victoria Velton

It is really starting to heat up out on the Parkrun courses. I made sure to put on sunscreen and drink plenty of water beforehand, but I think I sweated it all off before my second lap of the Palm Creek course. I was very grateful for that Zooper Dooper after the run, and I’m sure many others were too.

Both Parkruns were a little lower on participants this past weekend, but from the photos online, it’s clear that everyone who joined in had a cracking good time. Remember to follow the Palm Creek and Cardwell Parkrun pages on Facebook, where all the photos our lovely volunteers take are uploaded.

With just two weeks to go until Palm Creek’s 100th run, the volunteer team have something a little special planned. If you haven’t tried Palm Creek before, the 100th run could be the perfect one to join in!
