New Balance x Kic Afloat

Overview

Step up your plans for Melbourne's biggest weekend of running, as New Balance has teamed up with feel-good health and fitness app Kic to celebrate what makes every runner special. Taking over riverside hang-out Afloat for a morning run event on Saturday, October 11, guests will work up a quick sweat before catching their breath with a free not-to-be-missed brekkie.

After pacing a three- or five-kilometre run, the mid-morning fun begins with a feed from Hector's Deli and Sebby's Scrolls, paired with iced matchas and freshly brewed coffee. Then, the party turns up a notch, with Aussie DJ and producer Tigerlily spinning upbeat tunes that give this community gathering an invigorated edge.

While no one is upset about a complimentary breakfast by the waterfront, this special collaboration is also giving runners the chance to win some sweet prizes. These include a free pair of New Balance Neon Green Rebel v5s and exclusive NB x Kic event tees designed by Australian illustrator Hayley O'Connor. Meanwhile, 100 annual Kic subscriptions are also up for grabs.

"Whether you jog, run or stroll, our NB x Kic Afloat is there to empower and cheer you on every step of the way!" says Kic Co-Founder Steph Claire Smith. "It's not only a celebration during Melbourne's biggest weekend of running, it's a safe space that celebrates your individual running journey and puts the fun back in your run."
