The Flinders Running Festival is all about getting out and having fun. It started in 2007 as a community fun run and health promotion day and has grown every year since. The categories include the 26 km Pub2Pub and the 42km Pub2Pub Trail Marathon as well as the Flinders 5, a 5 km or 2 km event.
The festival is still very much a community weekend encouraging as many people to participate at any speed, pace or gait they please. For many local families, it’s a way of getting together and celebrating Father’s Day. There are no time restrictions or expectations for those who like to take their time but there is plenty of competition for runners who like to test themselves. And of course, there is plenty of opportunity for good food, great views and inspiring conversations!
