The Canberra Times Fun Run is back on 2 November 2025 - bringing determination, adrenaline, and inspiration to the streets of our capital.
Take on a fast, flat course past iconic landmarks like the Old and New Parliament Houses in your choice of four distances: the AIMS-certified Half Marathon and 10K, or the Runner's World 5K and 2K Kids events. With pacers to guide you, it’s the perfect chance to hit a PB or complete your first race.
Post-run, unwind in the lively event village with entertainment, a kids zone, and great vibes all around.
Grab your mates, get training, and join over 5,000 runners chasing their goals!
