Rockhampton parkrun is celebrating a remarkable milestone this Saturday β€” our 500th event! πŸ’™πŸ’™

Since our first event in 2016, thousands of participants and volunteers have helped make Rockhampton parkrun the welcoming community it is today. Reaching 500 events is an incredible achievement, more than 10,000 different participants have completed the course, recording over 118,000 finishes between them. Hundreds of volunteers have generously given their time to make each event possible, helping create the friendly and supportive atmosphere that makes Rockhampton parkrun so special.

To mark the occasion, wear BLUE and join us for this special event. Whether you're walking, jogging, running, volunteering, or cheering from the sidelines, we'd love to see a sea of blue as we celebrate 500 parkruns together.
