Wednesday 25 November
Fun Run
Now that you have flexed your brain power, it’s time to flex those hammies! The Fun Run/Walk will occur again this year on Wednesday 25 November, part of our long-standing program for healthy living and in conjunction with the wrap up of the conference.
Whether you run, walk, or stroll and chat, join us on Wednesday morning. Kicking off at 7:00am at Grey Street Social (corner of Grey Street and Tribune Street).
Electrolytes can be provided for those lacking energy after the gala dinner. It’s a scenic start heading towards to city beach then back along south bank to the Goodwill Bridge. This is a dedicated pedestrian and cyclist bridge that links the Brisbane River’s south and north banks.
We will cross over to north bank and follow the river round the edge of the botanical gardens until the Kangaroo Point Bridge, which is another dedicated pedestrian and cyclist bridge that will lead us back across the river. It is recommended to sprint across the bridge if you want to get ahead, as there are some steep stairs to descend at the end of the bridge where it will be tricky to overtake your colleagues!
Once we are across the bridge, we will follow the path along the river past kangaroo point, all the way back to south bank including the final dash to claim victory and more importantly, to get your coffee order in at Grey Street Social 😊
Date: Wednesday 25 November
Time: 7:00am
Meeting Place: Grey Street Social
Dress Code: Comfortable shoes
Cost: Free
