city park 1

 

It sure was a snowy one at City Park parkrun in Iowa City, but that didn’t stop their volunteers from having a blast. Their course was clear, the sun was (sort of) shining, and it was parkrunday! Sounds perfect to us.

Course cones? Nah… Jumbo party hats? Yes please! We’re sure loving the style at Fort Ward parkrun…

 

That’s it from us this week – see you next time!
