Hosted by Sapphire Coast Runners, Run for a Reason is a month-long virtual challenge event that helps you set and achieve your running goals while raising funds for a local charity and supporting Sapphire Coast Runners Inc. to encourage health and wellbeing through the sport of running.

The virtual challenge event sees participants setting a personal goal to run or walk a set number of kilometres (e.g. 10km, 25km, 50km, 100km, 150km, 200km, 250km, 300km), that they may complete all in one go, or throughout the nominated challenge month being 1st to 31st March.

Participants can walk, use the treadmill, run outside or participate in another race, completing their nominated kilometres when and wherever they like.

Where do the proceeds go?

All proceeds will be donated to a local charity that the committee has decided upon.
