Courtney Atkinson’s idea of a “Great Day Out” involves heading to beautiful Springbrook in the Gold Coast hinterland.
Not surprisingly, the former professional triathlete enjoys a brisk run along the Twin Falls Circuit in Springbrook National Park.
But it’s not all virtuous exercise. Courtney follows his work-out with an indulgent visit to Springbrook’s Fudge Shop.
Courtney also enjoys spending time outdoors with his young family – and Burleigh Beach is another favourite destination.
