Running brings communities together

from The Wellness Daily Show Hosted by Wellness Daily

In a digitally saturated modern world, genuine connection with like-minded humans can be quite rare. In this episode of The Wellness Daily Show, strategic director of parkrun Australia Tim Oberg joins host James Mitchell to delve into how the organisation endeavours to address this crucial issue by engaging with volunteers to help them coordinate free, weekly, 5km timed running and walking events in their local communities. They discuss the initiative's positive impacts on bringing communities together, how participation in parkrun can be adapted to different life stages and motivations, and where the organisation is expanding to across the Asia Pacific region.
