6km Race

The 6km event from Kurralta Central Shopping Centre, creates another iconic section of the City-Bay Fun Run.

At the 6km you can find a very competitive bunch of runners, who maybe aren't quite ready for the 12km or maybe even want to achieve a personal best time over the shorter distance.

But amongst the competitive runners, you’ll also encounter numerous families and friends creating an atmosphere filled with excitement and anticipation. Why not join in the festivities? Bring your family, set a goal, and sign up to take part. Some of your family members may prefer the 12km while others opt for the 6km—that’s perfectly fine. Simply reunite at the end amid the village entertainment on the reserves at the Bay.
