GISBORNE'S "DIXON FIELD PARKRUN"

Have you heard about parkrun?  It's a free, community, timed, 5km run/jog/walk event that happens every Saturday at 8am at Dixon Field in Gisborne. All for free as it's run entirely by volunteers each week, and we'd love more Gisborne locals to get involved. Please see the parkrun Australia's website: https://www.parkrun.com.au/, ours at: https://www.parkrun.com.au/dixonfield/, or our Dixon Field parkrun FB page for more information.
