50 Parkruns for Coach Pete today at Varsity Lakes Parkrun.
Peter has made Parkrun part of his Saturday morning in 2025 and made it his goal to hit 50 for 2025 👏😁 Job well done ✅ 👍

Congrats also goes to both Zara and Alexander who both ran a massive PB 🙌🙌 Great running effort by brother and sister. 💚
Family affair today with Niall and Jac also finishing across the line together. 👏

Thanks to those who came along to celebrate Peter's 50th run and of course all the volunteers and friends we have made at Varsity Lakes Parkrun this year.

See you all for another fantastic year of running for 2026

Perfect weather for our 5:30am "Christmas Rollout Ride" this morning 🧑‍🎄🎄🚴
Great to see everyone coming out in their festive attire...either decorating their bike or themselves. 🧑‍🎄🎊 Some tardiness from both Ryan and Jac with a request for tyre pumping required 🤣 and we were eventually on our way...no rush for Christmas ride though, RIGHT! 🤪

A spin up to congregate under the mistletoe sign at Surfers Paradise (note: no kissing witnessed 🤪🤪 by any of the crew🤣which was great to see I might add lol) followed by a further roll North to see if we could frolick with the beautiful peacocks in Macintosh Island park. 🦚🦚

We found one casual peacock hanging out on the picnic seat so in my usual Coach Jen style I had to have a close up chat about Christmas (no wildlife attack this time although he was voicing his territorial song for just a bit....I think he thought I was part of nature with my reindeer ears evident, so no further altercation to report 🤪)

We finished with a yummy breakfast at our regular haunt...
Heads up if you're looking for some post training food or in my case, some carbo loading for the next session....the Harvest Platter is amazing and great value. 💚😋

Merry Christmas one and all and I hope to see you all for the regular Barwick Christmas Eve front yard shindig 🧑‍🎄🎉

Last week we concluded our weekly squad training sessions for Term 4 and also had a barrel of fun at our Christmas party and end of year presentation.

This year we celebrated the 15 year anniversary of our A BODY 2 FIT Triathlon Squad whilst smashing out many great achievements, adventures to various events and much laughter 🤣😁

We are extremely proud of our squad's achievements this year together with that of our athletes whom we train on a personal coaching level. Everyone gave 100% effort this year whilst coming together to support one another at both training and events.

Congrats to Ryan on graduating with a Bachelor of Design from Griffith University last night....what an amazing fun-filled energetic ride it has been with the big fella and we are so super proud of what he has achieved over the last three years.

I guess we shouldn't be surprised that the 'lil fella who use to sit on the floor in his bedroom at 2/3 years old drawing cartoons in grey lead pencil to create a story....would end up an artist, musician and ultimately a performer 👏

It only seems like the other day that he finished school earning himself the Sir Samuel Griffith Scholarship at Griffith Uni and here we are....a highly sought after graphic designer within the music field after kicking off his own business at 15 yrs old as an artist being contracted by both the AFL and the SUNS for his drawings of their players and other sporting athletes. His only structured tuition being a couple of Mrs Red Art room lessons on a Saturday morning at the age of 9 🥰🤣

As a young entrepreneur with the energy of a high level sportsman and the humour of a stand up comedian, I guess it's expected that he would then just decide to start a band with his mates whilst sitting at the uni bar. 🤣🤣 Boom...INTRO "LOOSE GOOSE" and the most amazing team of four young fellas performing all over the country. Now one of the top bands on the GC and selling out 4 shows across 3 venues this year including Miami Marketta in their release gig "Split Bills" on his 21st birthday 🎈 🎂 We then saw the release of their very own LP "Not a Big Fan"

To say it's been an exciting 3 years would be an understatement. It's been a parental ride of a lifetime....me at the front of the mosh pit and Peter standing back proudly taking photos of his extremely talented son (note: Peter only danced with me at our wedding so moshing isn't his thing 🤣)
My proudest moment at the front of their sellout gig at Miami Marketta with our girl Kaitlin, Ryan's girlfriend Silvia Lorenzo Fernandez-Cordeiro and the boys we coach Kurtis, and Zach Deakin whilst Ryan performed the song he wrote for his sister "Cairns" after she left the nest to take up her job in Cairns. 💚

We are so proud of you Ryan....you depict everything Dad and I ever wished for you and more. You have often amazed us with your confidence to keep reaching further all whilst maintaining the courage to stand by your mates with integrity, and passion for the industry that you've come to love.

The world is your oyster and with so much opportunity and respect by your peers you are bound to continue succeeding....it may not always come easy or be an easy ride but when you are a "GO GETTER" it will always be rewarding and exciting and that is always worth fighting for!

Live life mate, go out there and smash it, and always remember, Dad and I won't be far behind you....you'll always be our lil boy ready to pick you up when and if you fall 💚

Peter, Fred, Nadine, Jon, Sheree, Megan, Sarah and Jed all kept us on our toes smashing out more great results for the squad and keeping Coach Jen honest whilst trying to keep track of all of you with the camera 📸 🤳 🤣🤪

Thank you to everyone who makes this event possible:

2nd last week of training for Term 4 and today we had a cracker. A great warm up followed by a reverse triathlon kept them focused and for many...finishing with the hardest discipline, THE SWIM 😀

Sorry I didn't capture everyone out on the bike but Coach Jen was busy with three different levels to cater for today. ⭐⭐⭐

Congrats to everyone on a great training session.

Last week of term 4 next week so if you have make up sessions to complete please do so by Thursday next week.

Our Christmas party and presentation is this Sunday. 🎄🥳🎉🎁
Looking forward to celebrating what has been an amazing year with you all and looking forward to bringing you our great list of events for 2026. Exciting new opportunities ahead.
