Running Along the Creek with a View 🌅

It’s a nice change from the usual gym scene, with fresh air and a touch of nature to keep you motivated.

Just remember to bring your barcode and get there a bit early to settle in and warm up.

Things to Keep in Mind When Visiting ⚠️

With the growth of Morwell and Traralgon, the parkrun can get pretty crowded during warmer months, so plan to arrive early to snag a good spot. Also, some runners have noticed a bit of a smell from the creek, likely from effluent, which might be a bit off-putting for sensitive noses. Despite this, the friendly community and well-organised event make it well worth the visit.
