Yackandandah Rail Trail parkrun. Victoria, Australia.

You can park the car at the Yackandandah football club to access the Yackandandah rail trail parkrun. It was a very enjoyable experience running this small event with about 70 other runners and walkers. The course was fully paved on a concrete or asphalt path, out and back alongside the creek. The undulating fifty metres of elevation gain was quite manageable in the cool morning under the shade of many trees, but it started to get warm as we made our way for coffee and breakfast at the Laneway Café at the Star Hotel in the middle of this delightful heritage listed town.

Yackandandah is in country Victoria about four hours north of Melbourne. Not too far from the New South Wales boarder. There was nothing here until the 1852 gold rush now it is a bit of a hidden gem. We had never heard of the place until a couple of other parkrun tourists told us about the place.

The first timer and run brief before we started. I reckon close to half the crowd were tourists.

It was a bit congested at the start, but the field soon spread out as they had some self-seeding cone markers at the start line. I started at the 25-minute cone, not many were trying for twenty minutes.

Some Zooper Dooper ice blocks at the finish line went down well.

Twenty-eight and a half minutes was a little slower than I was hoping for, but I have done a lot of miles over the past month or so. 539 parkruns now done over a twelve-year period.
