Run2Cure Sydney: A Fun-Filled Day Out for Families and Little Heroes

Get ready, Sydney! The annual Run2Cure is sprinting back into the Domain on Sunday 7 April 2024, and it's your chance to don those running shoes for a cause that hits close to home. Hosted by the tireless folks at Neuroblastoma Australia, this isn't just any run in the park.

Run2Cure Sydney: Support a Worthy Cause

For over a decade, this stellar event has been a beacon of hope, rallying Sydneysiders to pound the pavement and raise a whopping $1.7 million for neuroblastoma research. With survival rates teetering at 50%, every step, jog, or sprint at Run2Cure is a stride towards a future where childhood cancer is no longer a threat.

Whether you're a seasoned marathoner ready to tackle the 21.1km, a casual jogger eyeing the 10km, or someone who enjoys a leisurely 5km or 3km walk, Run2Cure has a spot for you. And for the families? There's a super 1km dash where the kiddos (and parents!) can unleash their inner superhero. Think of it: the little ones zooming past in a blur of capes and smiles — a sight more uplifting than any superhero movie.

But wait, there's more! Beyond the finish line lies a realm of fun that'll have the kids (and let's be honest, adults too) grinning from ear to ear. Pony rides? Check. Petting zoo? You bet. Live tunes to boogie down to? Absolutely. And with a spread of food stalls to refuel, you won't be running on empty for long.

The real winner here, though, is the fight against neuroblastoma. This event is a clarion call to arms (or legs) to support research into a disease that's taken too much, too soon. The backdrop? Only the most Instagrammable spots in Sydney — the Domain and Royal Botanic Gardens, with the Opera House and Harbour Bridge photobombing your selfies.
