The course
Course description
The course is run entirely (100%) on concrete paths.
Starting at the painted start line on the path, near the BBQ adjacent to the large undercover area, head north following the path keeping the river on your left, go under the bridge and turn right and to head onto the bridge. Turn around at the painted marker at the end of the bridge and follow the same route until you reach the triangle pathway follow that around (just after doing under the bridge) then continue along the same route back to Peacock Ave. Turn around and head back towards the bridge turning to go around the triangle pathway again (just before going under the bridge) and head back to the finish line which veers off to the left while staying on the path on the right side of the small undercover area, where the black and white checked post and finish line is on the path.
On the course
The course is 5k long. The course is in Logan River Parklands, Beenleigh. The course is run entirely on concrete paths. Some sections of the course may accumulate mud, leaves and puddles after rain. Dependent on availability, marshals will be at key sections of the course, or signs will be in place.
Please remember that the parkrun uses shared paths. For the continued success of the event, please give way to other park users. This won't hurt your time, it won't stop you from getting a PB and it will make sure everyone continues to enjoy the event.
Please, wherever possible walk, jog, cycle or use public transport when attending the event. If you do have to drive, please consider car-sharing to reduce our impact on both the environment and other park users. Please also watch out for other park users when arriving and leaving. Parking may be limited so try to arrive early.
Facilities
- As stated in the parkrun support pages, it is most important that children under 11 are accompanied (within reach) at all times by a parent or guardian. This is especially important as the course follows the path of the Logan River, and has paths leading to floating pontoons.
- There is a toilet block close to start/finish line.
- Taps are located near the starting line and at other locations on the course.
- Permanent exercise equipment is located around the course if you wish to improve your fitness before or after your parkrun.

Course safety
Logan River parkrun is a fun, free event organised by volunteers for the benefit of everyone. We wish to make the event as safe as possible, so participants, spectators and helpers are asked to take care about the following:
- Please be considerate to the park and other park users at all times.
- Children under the age of eleven must be accompanied (within arm's reach) throughout the event by a parent, guardian or appropriate adult of the parent's choice.
- Please arrive by foot, by pedal-power or by public transport if you can - your efforts help to reduce our impact on the park and the planet.
- We invite everyone to consider volunteering at parkrun. Your support helps your parkrun events remain sustainable and free for all in your community, and it’s also a wonderful way to improve your own health and happiness. Please visit the volunteer page for more information.
- Take care near roads and car parks – some vehicles drive very quickly. Please congregate away from the cars and be careful in particular if you have children. If you’re driving to the event, please drive carefully.
- Take care on uneven surfaces – whether on grass or on tarmac. Watch out for cyclists, other participants, pedestrians, children, dogs, wildlife, park animals, vehicles, park maintenance work, falling branches, bollards, posts and other obstacles around the course.
- Please ensure that you are fit enough to walk, jog, run 5k (3.1 miles) with us.
- If you see someone with a serious problem, please stop to help them out and get help as soon as possible.
- If you’re watching, keep clear of participants on the course, and look after any children and dogs you may have with you.
- It is not permitted to run with a pushchair and a dog at the same time.
- You are welcome to take part with one dog by your side, within reach at all times, on a short, handheld, non-extendable lead. The use of waist harnesses is prohibited. Please also see this Support Site entry for further details about parkrunning with dogs.
- parkrunners pushing buggies are welcome, but please take care of others around you and do your best to start at an appropriate place in the field for your pace.
We hope these tips help to ensure that Logan River parkrun is fun and safe for everyone.
