Persistence is an interactive adventure that was presented at the 2018 Commonwealth Games Festival. Audience members wore a custom built electronic badge, the artificially intelligent running coach Corey.
Participants adopted the role of a runner, while Corey guided them around the Cairns Esplanade and through a series of challenges. Each challenge explored how they juggled the demands of their lives against their ambitions.
A large, neon lit sculpture anchored the show in the esplanade parklands.

Hi! Subconsciously you already know this, but let's make it obvious. Hopefully this article was helpful. You might also find yourself following a link to Amazon to learn more about parts or equipment. If you end up placing an order, I make a couple of dollarydoos. We aren't talking a rapper lifestyle of supercars and yachts, but it does help pay for the stuff you see here. So to everyone that supports this place - thank you.
