We love seeing our members appear in adverts for awesome events! If you aren't doing anything tomorrow morning, get along and join in for a 5k, 10k, or half-marathon.

ONE MORE SLEEP until Carman’s Fun Run 2023 🥳🥳

Remember that you can pick up your race packs from the event village today between 10am-4pm, and there is STILL TIME TO REGISTER, so you can still convince your last-minute friend to join you.

We’re looking forward to such an amazing day with you all, there are SO MANY fun activities happening in the event village for the whole family so make sure you stay around after the race and check everything out.

Good luck also to all our Run Anywhere, Anytime participants who are participating in the event from all around the country from today until the 27th February.

There is still of course time to donate to and help them support Australians whose lives have been affected by breast cancer, so remember to share your fundraising pages and let people know your fundraising goals and your reasons for doing this. Together we’re making a difference, and we can’t wait to see you all tomorrow.
