Sydney Running Festival 2015
Gear up for a Sunday morning run with a view.
Overview
If you ever needed a reminder of why people run, the Blackmores Sydney Running Festival is a fine justification — beautiful morning views of our favourite city, actually running on Australia's most iconic bridge and, of course, the seemingly endless health benefits from the heart-pumping act itself.
And with four events (Marathon, approx. 42.2km; Half Marathon, approx. 21km; Bridge Run, 9km; and the Family Fun Run, 3.5km), it doesn't matter whether you are a seasoned athlete or have just pushed past that beginner, clutching-at-the-heart feeling. Entry fees cover your event kit and the various administrative costs that make it possible for everyone to run safely without beeping city cars. Alternatively, you can fundraise for a good cause, meet your target and run for free.
In previous years, the Sydney Running Festival saw over 4000 participants and raised $2 million for charitable organisations. Planners are hoping to top both of these figures this year.
