Conquer the Princes Park course for Race 2 of Sunset Series! Keep that fitness journey going from Race 1 at The Zoo and give it your all at the finish line.
Nestled in the heart of an inner-Melbourne suburb, Princes Park takes on a whole new vibe as we admire the summer sunset, jam to live music, enjoy tasty bites from local food trucks, and hang out at the Sunset Bar.
Grab a picnic rug, bring your buddies, and let's make the most of the night before summer slips away. It's the perfect way to soak up the season's vibes!
