While the Sydney Airport Family Fun Runway Run is a bit of an earful, you won’t be running hard yards in this easy-going, family-friendly race. This longest course for this fun run is only 1km, as the routes are entirely based on Sydney Airports’ runway space.
Yep, you and the kids could be pelting down the tarmac where huge A380s normally roll in after a 15-hour flight. In addition to the competitive 1km, there’s also a 500 metre run, a team relay and a 100 metre dash for kids.
It’s all a bit of a laugh in a weird setting, but you’ll also be raising much needed funds for the country’s most promising cancer researchers working with Cure Cancer Australia. Adult entry prices are $95 and kids get onto the runway for $45 and you can choose to raise more funds to fuel your run.
