Sun18 Oct 2020: City2Surf Virtual Run

Tue 18 Oct 2020: City2Surf Virtual Run

The 2020 City2Surf was held as a virtual event for the first time in its 50-year history due to COVID-19, allowing participants to run, walk, or jog a 14km course anywhere between 6am and 6pm on Sunday 18 Oct 2020.

Cost started at $39 for adults

We received a printable bib, access to the tracking app, a finisher's medal and a commemorative bandana.

Lily, Kaylene, Mare and I walked from our place around Olympic Park and back. Way easier than the actual route which was mapped for us on the app.
