Traralgon parkrun

The nearest train station is Traralgon Station. Approximately 1.2km in a Northerly direction along Franklin St to the course (See directions on foot).

Latrobe Valley Bus Lines offer limited options to arrive at Agnes Brereton Park on time, Route 40 stops in Breed St at 7.27am and Route 45 stops in Franklin St at the Tennis Centre at 7.04am. For those using public transport from out of town it may be best to get a taxi or walk from Traralgon Plaza to the course. For more information and details use the Public Transport Victoria Journey Planner.

From the town centre, Agnes Brereton Park is approximately 900 metres along Franklin St, turn left into Davidson Street, through the tennis centre car and turn left over the bridge into Agnes Brereton Park to the start line. For further details refer to the course map.

There are 200 parking spaces available in the ASIC car park located on the Eastern side of Franklin St near the Moore St intersection. This is an ideal location with just a short warm up walk to the start. There may also be parking in the tennis centre and the netball courts car parks: however if the netball or tennis is on then these car parks may be full. If parking in other streets please be mindful of the potential impact on residents.

Every week we grab a post-parkrun coffee: a local café, which we will announce during the pre-event briefing. Please come and join us!

Traralgon 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 Traralgon parkrun is fun and safe for everyone.
