    Take on Princes Park for Race 2 of Sunset Series! Keep that summer fitness journey going from Race 1 at The Zoo and give it your all until you reach the glorious finish line. This is the perfect course for you to set a brand new PB - it's fast and flat!

     

    Nestled in the heart of a beloved inner-Melbourne suburb, Princes Park will come to life as we run and admire the summer sunset. Stay behind after you cross the finish line and 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 make the most of the night celebrating your wonderful achievement before summer slips away. It's the perfect way to soak up the season's vibes!
