About This Event
The City-Bay Fun Run stands as one of South Australia's most iconic running events, drawing thousands of participants annually to Adelaide. This year's event is part of the Athletics Australia Australian Road Running Championships, adding competitive prestige to what remains fundamentally an inclusive community celebration. Organized by the City-Bay Fun Run Committee Inc., a not-for-profit organization, the event serves a dual purpose of bringing the community together while raising vital funds for athletics in South Australia. Proceeds support local athletes, clubs, and service organizations, with a trust fund established to help promising athletes reach major competitions including the Olympics. The event welcomes runners of all abilities across four distance options, from a relaxed 3km experience to a full half marathon. With its combination of competitive timing for longer distances and an untimed 3km option, the City-Bay Fun Run exemplifies the spirit of inclusive running while maintaining serious racing standards for those seeking them.
