I’m looking to get a 5k PB and was wondering if any Brisbane-based runners had good ideas of where would be a good place to do it. I’m thinking probably Sandgate, but wondered if anyone else had ideas.

    Fair enough! I used to live in st Lucia and run from guyatt park to the bridge and back for my 5ks, never joined the park run. Three turnarounds sounds frustrating. Hope you had a good run this morning!

      Yeah I used to run 5ks as a loop from the dirt path, up towards the Ville via the back of Grace College, and then back to the dirt path. These days I tend to default to 10k as the dirt path, then along the Esplanade to the St Lucia Golf Course, and back.

      And yeah, my run went fantastically this morning, thanks! My goal was <18 min, but considering my previous PB was 18:46 I would have been happy with anything under 18:40. Ended up with comfortably less than 17:50.
