Bowen parkrun is a free, timed, 5km walk or run put on by the community for the community at 7am every Saturday morning in Bowen, QLD.

parkrun is not a race against other runners, but a 5km timed run, jog or walk. It can really be whatever you want it to be, whether that's for fun or as part of a training plan. Bowen parkrun offers an opportunity for all members of our local community, male or female, young or old, to come together on a regular basis to enjoy our beautiful town and get physically active in the process. We want to encourage people to walk, jog or run together irrespective of their ability – this event is truly open to all and best of all it really is FREE! Taking part is easy – just register in advance by 6pm on the Friday before your first ever parkrun event. The great thing is that you only ever need to do this once! Then just set your alarm for Saturday morning and get yourself there!

Hi all Bowen parkrunners & parkwalkers, We are green to go for event 503, with a full volunteer roster and 48 zooper doopers in the freezer. It is going to be a warm morning, so we must manage our hydration, before, during and after the run. We will definitely need everyone to look at the volunteer board this Saturday morning, before or after the run. We really need to fill all the spots before we leave, there are only 5 important spots to fill, to be able to have a parkrun next week. So please give it a go, you will really enjoy vollunteering. We will sign off for now, hope to see a big turnout on Saturday morning.
All the best - Michael Deckert- run director.
