Whether you are aiming to raise as much money as possible for the charity closest to you, run a personal best or take on the challenge of a longer distance, there’s a race for everyone at Run Melbourne, including the 3km Kids event, 5km run/walk, 10km run or Brooks Half-Marathon.

Run Melbourne is more than just a “fun run”. For many participants, it is an opportunity to give back to the community by raising funds for a cause close to their hearts.

Over nine years, we’ve raised over $10 million for more than 400 charities and we’ve set our sights high for 2016 with a $2 million target! So, while you’re out running this week, think about a cause you could support, or the personal milestone you want to achieve at this year’s event.
