Event Details

This is 21.1km of Melbourne at its best.
Starting on Batman Avenue, you’ll run the city like you’ve never seen it before – east along Flinders Street, through the leafy canopy of Fitzroy Gardens, and past the iconic Flinders Street Station.
The course continues toward Docklands, hugging the Yarra River past Crown Melbourne and on to Marvel Stadium at Harbour Esplanade. Cross the river via Webb Bridge, follow the South Wharf Promenade, and loop back through Alexandra Gardens as the city skyline comes into full view.
Then comes the Tan. Melbourne’s most beloved run track awaits on St Kilda Road – past the Shrine of Remembrance, around Government House, and back toward the river.
The final stretch brings you home along the Yarra into Birrarung Marr, onto Tanderrum Bridge, and across the finish line inside Melbourne Park.
21.1km. One city. Yours for the morning.
