That’s the kind of thing you hope comes out of a weekend of sport.

Throughout July, Team Veteran members joined their local parkrun communities across Australia.
Each Saturday morning is another opportunity to move, reconnect with familiar faces and build a routine alongside others.
Whether walking, running, volunteering or cheering from the sidelines, Team Veteran is creating a national community through local participation.
