For 30 years, generations of runners have started their year at Portsea Twilight, sharing coastal roads, finish-line celebrations and long summer evenings with friends and family.
This January, the tradition continues as we celebrate 30 years of unforgettable moments at Portsea.
To mark this special milestone, every participant will receive an exclusive 30th anniversary medal when they cross the finish line.
Plus, the first 500 runners to register and select race bib postage will receive an exclusive gold personalised race bib, featuring your name! (excludes Kids Dash participants).
