Wyndham Rotary Fun Run: Step up for hospital appeal

Early bird entries for next month’s GMHBA Wyndham Rotary Fun Run and Walk close on Sunday, so sign up and save.

People of all ages and abilities are encouraged to register for the March 1 event, which starts from Werribee’s Chirnside Park.

You can take part in the five or 10-kilometre run or four or eight-kilometre walk along the scenic course, which winds its way around the picturesque Werribee River.

The route is ideal for first-time runners, avid walkers or experienced runners seeking a new challenge.

Enter as an individual, with friends and family, or as a corporate team, and take part in a fun community event while raising vital funds for the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal.

Proudly supported by Star Weekly, the event will have something for everybody including giveaways, special guests and plenty more.

The Western Recreational Running Group is providing free training in the lead-up to the run, with sessions held at the VU Athletics Track, Hoppers Lane, Werribee, every Thursday from 6.15am.
