Rainy Day Doesn't Stop Parkrun

by Victoria Velton

Despite the rain in Ingham, the Parkrunners were out this weekend enjoying a morning of exercise. Palm Creek saw visitors from all over; Cairns, Rockhampton, Brisbane, Adelaide, and even the Red Earth Running squad came down from Cardwell to give Palm Creek a go. Two of them achieved PBs along with three others and a new runner took out the top spot this week.

Luckily for Cardwell, the rain stayed away. They had a turnout of 6 parkrunners, and one achieved a PB. It was only regulars this week but that made for a very cosy running experience as they all finished the course quite close together in time.

Remember, you can grab a coffee or post-parkrun brekkie with friends afterwards. Dry out at a local cafe and warm those hands around a steaming cup of hot chocolate with the kids.
