We had fun in Keith, where Tom Jonas hosted a footy clinic - it was powerful hearing him speak about his football career.
Then, up early Friday morning for a Walk & Talk, finishing with coffee and brekky from the legends at Harvest Providore.
Thanks to Preventive Health SA.

[Fat Farmers @fat_farmers]

We partnered with @DiabetesSA and @BreakthroughMHR a few weekends ago in Karoonda as part of our Preventive Health SA funding delivery.

Recap: Thursday with Tom Jonas training with the footy club, Friday morning walk & talk, then delivered 28 free diabetes checks on Saturday.

A rural health initiative begun in South Australia is now making inroads across the nation, getting farmers out of their tractors and into the gym. It started more than a decade ago when a trio of unfit, middle-aged Yorke Peninsula cockies had a good look at themselves and did not like what they saw.
